Hello and Welcome to our Community Blog!There are quite a variety of Blog applications available on the Internet, but as one of the goals for this course is to explore Google Tools, Blogger is what I used to create this blog.
You will be provided access to this environment so that you can add posts, and contribute to the pages that you will be responsible for preparing at some point during the course. We will also explore some other design features in Blogger - i.e. adding gadgets - to personalize this environment and make it more reflective of the group.
I'm looking forward to getting started!

ReplyDeleteHello, I'm Kelsey Hoggard and I am hoping to do the Dual program for SPED and GEN.ED. I have blogged before when I studied abroad in college. I have not blogged since that though, but really enjoyed having a blog when I did.
ReplyDeleteKelsey where did you study abroad? I lived in China and taught English for a year...but not sure if blogging existed ?
DeleteYou're a rockstar for doing the Dual Program; I definitely couldn't do it!
DeleteI studied abroad in Spain for a summer and then traveled around a few weeks after before having to start back at school. That sounds awesome! Did you enjoy China? I have heard mixed feelings.
DeleteThanks Mattie!!! Also, thanks for your comedic personality :)

ReplyDeleteHi, my name is Nancy and I used Blogger when I was in high school and a little bit through out my early twenties. My experience with Blogger was when Xanga was still popular, and that's been a really long time! So needless to say, my knowledge and experience with blogger is extremely outdated.
ReplyDeleteI'm Terry and I'm in Gen Ed. I blogged a long time ago, just to send pictures and stories about my kids to my extended family.
