Blogging 101

 

In this session, participants will develop skills to plan, develop and publish blog post for use in learning.

What exactly is blogging? Blogging at its very basic, blogs -- or "Web logs" -- are literally online diaries with articles, writings, photos, or other entries made by the blogs' creators, or "bloggers."

Entries are listed in reverse chronological order so the most recent entry is on top and older information or "blog posting" can be found by scrolling down the Web page.


Most blogs allow readers to leave their own comments or links to topics and other Web sites relevant to the entry or the blog's topical focus. Typically, this interactive nature allows bloggers to refer to each other's blogs, creating so-called "blogospheres" -- groups of blogs centered on specific themes, topics or interests.

Session Learning Objectives: Upon successful completion of this workshop, you’ll be able to:

• Set up an account, post, edit, and modify your blog post
• Create a blog and identify the various ways it can be used in a learning environment using best practices
• Use your blog to blend with other social media tools to strengthening online learning experiences
