See more about using Google Classroom here (adjusting your settings for example)

You will be asked to provide your account information when you fill the form to request your weekly badge at the end of this page.

 

Task 4. Read this week’s readings  (at the bottom of this page) and post comments on the readings to the Google Classroom.  It's not enough to say you read the articles, you need to reflect on them. You do not need to comment on all of them, just the ones you find relevant. 

 

Task 5. Attend Week One live session on Tuesday Jan 15 at 7:00 PM GMT and add your comments on the session here

 

Task 6.  Start a wiki, blog or website to post your  creations as the session goes on and add the link to it on the Google Classroom.

As for wikis, you can start your account in PBworks (seemingly unlimited in the free version) 

As for blogs, you can create your account in BloggerWordPress or Edublogs for teachers. We recommend Blogger as it offers the most uploading possibilities , yet you can experiment with other blogs too. 

If you want to create a really simple and easy website, do it in Google Sites. For tutorials go underneath. 

 

Check out this blog on blogger created by our moderators. We will post things there to showcase some possibilities a blog can offer you. Please leave a comment.  

Check out this blog for  a school created  on edublogs :  a teacher's blog  . It is used for guiding the students' activities when in class and also from home. The basic account with edublogs doesn't enable you to embed  in the same way as  blogger.

 

Share the link to your Blog, Wiki, or Google Site here 

 

Task 7. Fill out the Google form survey.
