Welcome from Instructor to EDLA 7550!
Congratulations, you’ve logged in successfully. This weblog is a home page for EDLA 7550. It will serve as a clearinghouse for our dialogue in the blogosphere. This is where I will post highlights from interesting reads and offer response to individual or aggregate weblog postings, based on excerpts from your latest posts or others’ comments to individual weblog entries. I may also choose to suggest prompts for select weblog entries, so please make sure to check the course home weblog page at least once a day.
Each of you will have your own weblog linked to this course weblog on which you will post your writing. This is where you will share and celebrate with others your discoveries and treasures as learners, researchers, and teachers in this course, and as commentators on student blogs, beyond this course. If readers click the link to your weblog on this blog, they will find their way to your blog. You will post comments to students on their individual blogs. I will provide the links to these students’ blogs in the near future.
You will be able to read more about individual posts and respond to them on everyone’s own weblog, using the Comment feature on individual weblogs. Please make sure to give your blog a name that speaks to you as an educator and that relates in some fashion to the goals set for this course. Similarly, please remember to give each new post a heading or title, so that it can be associated easily with our weekly discussion topics.
Let us begin our journeys into the blogsphere that celebrates collaborative learning experiences, reflection, and sharing of expertise and resources!
