Teachers Setting up Blogs

In 2010, the NSW DET will be releasing a blogging package for staff to use with their students. 


This package has been trialled, reviewed and modified by 22 schools, in preparation for it's release across the state.


Until then, nearly all interactive social networking sites are blocked to students and staff.


Currently, staff & years 11 and 12 have access to edublogs. Staff have access to blogger. All staff and students have access to Moodle, if a school decides to download, install and set up this free and flexible web - which has forums, wikis and messaging - all interactive components for staff and students to use within school created course structures. 


ACTIVITY FIVE:
Log in to Ingleburn High School's Moodle site and create your account.
This can be found at Ingleburn High School's webpage. 
Once there - go to the "Online Learning" tab and click through to Moodle.
Once at Moodle - log in to activate your account (Use the same details as you use for Novell).




ACTIVITY SIX:
Set up your own test site via edublogs
Follow the prompts (Hint: use your fullname as user name, use first initial last name as your blog address, use your det email)
