| Maybe you are unsure of what exactly a blog
is and what blogging is all about.
The word 'blog' stands for a web log. A web log
can be many things including a personal diary or commentary
published on the web that people can comment on. If you would
like a more complete definition of blog go to
Blog - Wikipedia.
I have included some articles on blogging and the educational value of blogging below. Blogging is easy to do and fun! Submitting a comment to a blog is very easy to do and no harder than responding to an email. You select the blog entry that you wish to respond to and click on the comments hyperlink. The hardest part of using the Simple Machines blog is 'getting there'. |
| The Simple Machines blog requires network log on. Upon clicking on the hyperlink to the blog, More Simple Machines - The Blog and Movies the connect to log on box will come up. Enter world\your_user_name and your network password in the password box. It is JUST like logging onto NAN web. I have also set up some generic account logons to this blog but you must email me to get them. |
| IF you have problems, please feel free to email me at novakc@nashua.edu OR Skype me at claudia.novak. If you would like more information on setting up your own blog, let me know and I will try to help you. |
