Welcome to Learning to Blog!  We will be learning how to create a blog here on WordPress to support student learning through blogging.   We’ll also explore strategies for tapping into the power of blogs as classroom tool to facilitate student learning.

Here are few basic things to know about our first day:

• Do you need driving directions?  Click here to access our directions to CRHS.  A sign will be posted outside the building to direct you where to enter. 
• We will be meeting both Saturdays in the Media Center Lab—signage will direct you where to go.
• Dress in layers—the temperature sometimes fluctuates in our lab.
• We will break for an hour lunch from 11:30 until 12:30.  There are several places to eat within 5 minutes of Creekview.  You may also bring a lunch; I have a fridge and microwave you are welcome to use if you don’t want to go off campus.
• I am delighted and honored that you have signed up for this course—we are going to have fun and learn many new skills!

Here is a sneak peak at what we will be doing on Day 1, Saturday, March 8, 2008.

Jump in and have some fun as we learn to blog!
