Weblog Workshop Coming Up!

This coming Thursday I will be giving a Weblog Workshop to a Middle/Secondary InstructionalTechnology  group.  The professor, Dr. Brendan Calandra, has been interested in weblogs for a while and we finally have been able to connect on a time.  I’m really looking forward to sharing the possibilities! I’ve tried to keep it simple and am modeling the use of a weblog to give a workshop.  My outline covers the following:

  • Overview
  • Educational Weblogs
  • Creating a Weblog
  • Weblog Articles
  • Manila Help Links
  • Possibilities

    Looks like a great program Anne.

    How many participants will there be?

    I’ll be interested in the results you get

    This sounds really interesting. I’d be interested in your ideas/thoughts/ideas about keeping a rolling discussion log to link support staff members throughout the district in contact with one another. Often we are unable to be reached by phone and our questions/concerns come and go…but spending time in a room for hours hashing through “issues” takes away from instructional support time. I think that blogging could be a more efficient way to think our way through “issues” prior to physical meetings to make meetings more streamlined and efficient. Thoughts, comments?

    Hi Skip,

    I think there are 10 or 11 participants. I’ll let you know how it goes.

    Hi Brian,

    I think keeping a rolling discussion log for support staff members would be great! I think that thinking your way through “issues” would probably lead to some other great ideas for uses of blogs. Keep us posted!
