#4 (WEEK 2) Register your blog with your mentor or ANT2 team leader



If you’ve made it this far, you already have three items or “things” completed of the ’23 Things.’ I hope you're enjoying the adventure so far and having fun. Remember to share with colleagues any knowledge or experience that may help them out if they get stuck or vice versa!

But how does your coordinator know where your blog is? Good question! You need to email the URL of your blog to your mentor or team leader so they can read your progress on each of the ‘23 things’. Reminder: Clearly identify each WEEK and each exercise (THING) in your entries. So, here’s Thing #4 -- Register your blog by e-mailing the address to your mighty leader.

Remember … your blog address is in the format http://insertname.blogspot.com/It’s really that easy and just think, now there’s only 19 more things to go. :)

Curriculum Connections
  1. Idea #1: A blog is an excellent device for home-TAFE communications. Daily assignments/homework/special TAFE announcements can be posted on your blog and then your students and/or their parents can “subscribe” to your blog.
  2. Idea #2: A blog is an excellent forum for discussion of issues. Create one for the next local, state, or national election and discuss the issues of the day.
  3. Idea #3: If you set blog posts as an assignment, there's a great rubic you can mark on edtech 296

Thanks for the examples.
It's very interesting to see how other people are using blogs in education.
