Reports April 28th, 2008

Wow, Having Mexico English Teachers’ Alliance :: META Web 2.0 featured on the Ning Blog (and the Network Creators Ning, see below) is quite an honor! META is the social/professional network that was created about 1 year ago to allow English teachers in Mexico (and friends) to begin developing their professional learning networks and connecting with other teachers.

EduBlogs.org tutorial: A 5-minute introduction

Tools February 21st, 2008

edublogs.orgLast night, Vicki Davis talked about her team’s Flat Classroom Project and seven steps to get started. Step no. 1 is “Get Connected.” So why not start your very own blog to record and share your reflections on education? Or, to also serve as a professional portfolio? … and most importantly to start getting connected. Edublogs.org is a fantastic place to start because the service is so special and user-friendly; and you have a ready-made educational community to connect to.

Edublogs.org is also a good place to start because being a new blogger means that you probably need a lot of hand-holding and support. Edublogs.org has all that and more. Just check out their community forum. Even seasoned bloggers feel at home at Edublogs.org. So, if you are already blogging and not quite happy, then take a quick peek at this updated video tutorial. My blog is testament to the fantastic service and quality that Edublogs.org offers.

Ready to get connected? How about… starting today! Watch this 5-minute tutorial by James Farmer for an introduction to Edublogs.org blog setup and rich features.

Let’s get started, shall we?

This my blog. Frank’s blog. It is a place for reflection, sharing, researching, probing, laughing, crying and both meaningful and meaningless wanderings. Snippets of my life, sometimes keenly focused and coherent and at other times fuzzy and senseless. It is what it is, plain and simple. Welcome to me, to Frank’s Blog!
