Thanks Anne, that has been great.
We will be in touch again.
Wow! So much information…have had a valuable day at Hawkesdale with Anne, Faye and Britt. I have lots to pass on when I get back to school and I will be hoping to inspire teachers and students.
Thank you!
Very interesting, but a lot to try and take in when not real computer mind.
But great for getting to know one and another by face and not just voice on photo.
Explained very week
Ann, You are a humble genious. Your ICT skills are mindblowing! Today’s information have been most enlightning. Being apart of writer’s class was most valuable. It was an honour to be apart of it. Thankyou.
How do I start and use a blog? Also, what is the best blogging site?
I use blogging with students, so we use edublogs. However, if the blog is just for you and a personal type blog, I suggest wordpress or blogger. (I use wordpress but my son uses blogger.) Both have some great features and allow videos, images and podcasts etc. If you go to this site, scroll down and on the right hand side bar, is Starting a blog. http://teacherchallenge.edublogs.org/ Go there and there are some great tips etc for starting a blog. All the best.
