Learning to Blog

Hello! My name is Mark Mitchell, and I am very new to blogging and using the Web 2.0 in my classroom. I just finished a PBS course, Communication and Collaboration Online, and have learned a lot in the past 6 weeks. For my Final Project in the class, I created a blog that I will use with my Photography 2 class next year. The blog is called The Alphabet Picture Project, and can be found at http://artmitchell.edublogs.org/. The blog centers on the project, which has students working in pairs, taking images of ordinary objects, composed in such a way that they look like a letter in the alphabet. The images are posted to the blog to be viewed and commented on by the classes involved. The images are to be shared by the students, so they can create a Final document that spells out their first name. A few of my PBS classmates served as my “students” for the project, and overall, I think I’m off to a good start. If anyone has a chance, could you take a look at my blog? Any comments or questions would be greatly appreciated. I have been having some issues with loading images, so no all the letters are up just yet. Thanks so much for your help!
