Introduction to Blogging & Digital Citizenship

GOOGLE BLOGGER

[ISTE Standard: Creative Communicator]

In this collaborative project with the Humanities teachers, I assisted with helping provide the technical and conceptual needs of implementing an individual blog for each student. An important aspect of this project was that the students would post their work and ideas, as well as to participate in the act of giving and receiving feedback. This was kicked-off with a session about how to set up blogs, use a rich text editor, and a discussion around guidelines and expectations to be a Digital Citizen. Each student was guided to set up their blog and a how-to of taking and adding some multimedia components.
