If you would like to add a post, you simply click on add post on the upper right hand side of the screen. A word program will pop up and you can start typing using the tools above. You may link websites by clicking link, add photos, and videos. Make sure you are in the compose mode unless you get real fancy and would like to embed something using HTML. I can show you this next class. Make sure when you are done typing you click SAVE and then PUBLISH. You can then view the blog. Also, if you need to make changes to your blog after you publish it, all you need to do is click the pencil at the bottom of your blog and it will bring you back to your original document.
If you would like to comment on another person's blog, you can go ahead and click on the comment, a text box will show up and you can type at will. I will not be screening the comments (you can do that), because I am sure that this group will use the comment box in a constructive manner.
Question: How do you think you could use blogs in the classroom? Would you like to learn how to create your own blog?
