Welcome to the
Electronic Village Online 2008
How can teachers spice up their classes, raise students' interest in various topics and get them to express their thoughts freely? How can they engage students in interactions with each other as a group?
This six-week online workshop aims to introduce participants to different ways in which blogging can be integrated into teaching. It will provide hands-on opportunities for educators who are new to blogging to set up and develop their own blogs, as well as to explore the worlds of possibilities provided by different kinds of blogs. By the end of the workshop, participants will have experimented with creating and enhancing blogs, posting and editing entries, inviting members to their blogs, and commenting on one anothers' blogs - using either Blogger or Wordpress platforms. Participants will also have explored blog comment management, template personalization, tagging (labeling) and really simple syndication (RSS).
The target audience
Teachers with no extensive experience in blogging.
Participants are assumed to have skills necessary for basic communication via a discussion group and Internet browsing skills.
Tutorials will be made available for those with difficulties in areas that may prevent participation.

Anyone who knows the wiki-wide password can contribute to its content. Though the workshop facilitators have intended to share that password only among workshop participants registered at the workshop Yahoo! group, there is no way to ensure it has not been shared with others.
To make collaboration easier, we encourage all contributors to avoid making anonymous entries. Thanks in anticipation!
