The bootcamp will take you through creating a blog, adding features and a range of blogging activities. Classes will have the opportunity to link up with other glow blogs and the world wide blogging community.
Each week there will be ‘technical’ tips, blogging challenges and discussion points that can be carried out in your classroom and on your blog.
What you need: A Class, somewhere to blog (glow for example). No technical knowledge needed.
While most of the technical support will be aimed at glow users the bootcamp is open to any classroom.
A blog, with its easy publication of day-to-day news (posts) of classroom news and updates, is a great way for your class to share the story of their learning with learners elsewhere, parents and the school community. You can use fixed pages, too, to share the less newsy information, just like on any traditional web site.
