I am super excited about an upcoming workshop I am doing. I get to combine two of my favorite passions: working with language teachers and blogging. Here’s our tentative agenda:
Introduction
- What is a blog?
- Why do we blog?
Getting Ready to Blog
- Tips for creating excellent blog posts
- Using multimedia in your blog
- Blogging for and with students
Write on! Hands-on blogging
- Setting up your blog
- Writing your first blog post
- Adding categories, tags and excerpts
- Creating visual interest with photos
What do you think? Have I missed anything? What words of wisdom would you have for teachers who are learning how to blog for the first time? I’d love to hear your comments and thoughts.
