Learning more Web 2.0

Hello All,

This is my first attempt at blogging, so I'm definitely "learning along the way." I chose blogging because I wanted to attempt something new. I am familiar with wikis, so decide to take the blogging route. I chose this particular blogging site on Kathy Shrock's advice. I have found her other technology teaching suggestions to be invaluable, so, decided I couldn't go wrong with blogging. I settled on Blogger.com because I could use my current Google account instead of registering for yet another online tool.

So, my blog will focus on learning...more specifically learning to facilitate online courses. I will trace 3 of the most crucial things I've learned as a facilitator over the past three years as part of this grant. As of yet, I've not settled on those 3, but am churning several around as I read the discussion forum.

I will devote the next few minutes trying to make sure I can successfully direct you to my blog site. So if you end up here, I was a successful learner. I do hope my learning will in some way guide others who want to facilitate online courses. I have found facilitating full of challenges and rewards as I will elaborate on in future blogs.

Oh Jane, I want so much to create and use blogging in my next facilitated course so I'm very happy that you invited me to view your blog!
Your directions are great; I'm here, and I want to create a blog of my own. I'll know who to go to for help.
Retirement and grandchildren make a wonderful world! Add those to online facilitating, and what could be better? Barb
