SUMMARY OF THE FIRST TERM

CREATING A GROUP OF CONTACTS IN GMAIL

First, we sent a gmail to [email protected], telling who we are, which our class is and who our tutor is.Later we created a group of contacts including all the members of the class, including the teacher, for that, we copied all the addresses adding contacts to the group.

CREATING A BLOG

First we entered laskoICT's because there were the instructions to create a blog.So we went to blogger and we introduced our account data, username and password.Later we opened a screen where we had to press "create new blog".To finish, we invented a URL which finished with "blogspot.com"

OTHER BASIC SETTING OPTIONS

After creating the blog, we started playing with the basic settings options like:-Changing the title of our blog, we were able to change the URL too.-Secondly we gave administrator privilege to the teacher, in that way, she would be able to correct our work, etc...

Changing the appearance of our blog

We changed our templates, colours and fonts (type and size). We clicked on template, and chose customize and to finish, we played with the different options.

COLLABORATIVE STORIES WITH GOOGLE DOCS

First we made groups of 6, and then each of the group started his story making only the first paragraph, and later the others did the other paragraphs making a story of 6 paragraphs.

CORRECTING THE STORIES

After finished all the stories each one corrected the grammar, vocabulary, language and all the mistakes in the story and when we finished correcting we published. To read one of them click here.
