  4. Wait, what’s a blog? The word blog is short for web logand has become a popular way to publish on the internet. Blogs are dynamic websites that people (and sometimes companies) use to write about whatever they want by regularly posting new content. Blogs can be anything from travel diaries to weekly restaurant reviews and often have ways to allow readers to subscribe or leave comments for the author.

  5. Tips Ideas Keep in mind: Your intended audience. Who are you writing for? Your students? Their parents? Other teachers? Your spelling and grammar. These things matter. If your posts are difficult to read, people will stop reading. Yourself. This project is for your own reflection and professional development. Don’t be afraid to have some fun!

  6. Getting Started • Go to http://www.weebly.com (there’s a link on the course homepage as well) • Enter your name, an email address, and a password you will remember. • Click the “Sign up” button • Start creating! We’ll go over some basics together. I suggest using your WOU email address for any accounts we set up in the class, but you may use any address you are comfortable with.
