Advanced ESL

Welcome to the Advanced ESL blog!

This will be our class blog. Do you know what a blog is? Please keep reading to find out more.

Each of you will create your own blog, which can be linked to this blog. You'll be able to visit all your classmates' blogs by coming here and clicking on the links in the sidebar.

What will we use the blogs for?

Mainly for writing. I'll post some of your assignments here and you can post your work, pictures, information about your goals and accomplishments, etc. on your personal blog. Think of it as a place to showcase your work. People have gotten jobs on the basis of their blogs. It will be as good as you make it.

You will also be able to visit other people's blogs to read their work and leave your comments. Other teachers can come to visit and comment on your blogs, and you can show them to your family and friends. We might even use a blog for project work.

Have a look at the blog I created for my last class http://ievcc.blogspot.com . Click on some of the names in the sidebar to see the students' blogs. You can also click on the link to read the information sheet another teacher (Buthaina Al Othman at Kuwait University) prepared for her class http://alothman-b.tripod.com/weblog_finalpro.htm

Now, if you're ready, let's start blogging!
