Tutorial Three: Blog Creation Tasks

Task One: Follow instructions to set up a account with Blogger This will involve setting up a Google account (make note of your user name and password)

Task Two: Follow instructions to complete the following Blog construction tasks Choose a Blog Template (this can be changed later if you wish) Provide a Blog title (this will need to incorporate your name and the course title Participation in Occupation 1) Provide a Blog outline. This is a short statement outlining the purpose of the Blog (this information should come from the course outline and assessment guidelines for Participation in Occupation 1). Complete your Blog profile (you need to include your age, gender, industry, occupation and location) Up load a photo to your Blog profile

Task Three: Follow instructions to start posting content. Your first two post should be taken from the technical descriptions for tutorials one and two. I have managed to do most of this I think but not without considerable help from James and fellow class mates. I have found this a challenge and I am not sure I could do this again without full assistance.

Task Four: Provide a brief summary of the services offered by Blogger (this will be your third posting. Information can be drawn from the attached hand out). In addition to this name one other Blog host. Blogging is about connecting with people and fellow colleagues around the country and around the world with similar interests as you. It is your chance to share your ideas and see what others are doing. You can see feedback on ideas and attitudes on particular topics from like minded people. You can have control over who sees your blog and who can make comments on it.

Task Five: Upload 5 photos from tutorial 5 onto your flickr account. We did take photos using the digital camera however they did get misplaced in the system and we were unable to load them onto the blog

Any remaining time can be spent · Exploring Blogs hosted by Blogger and other services (e.g.myspace) · Setting up a personal Blog · Organising your flickr account into groups
