Presentation Transcript

  1. Blogging… Writing and Growing as Authors

  2. Rules for the Lab • No food • No drinks • No “abuse” of the equipment • Save to your workspace folder • Put it all back like you found it • Log-on procedures must be used (we have our own “space”) • Printing only with facilitator or Miss Janell’s permission • The ICE tech tools folder is “yours” – feel free to explore!

  3. It’s all about the writing! • Purpose is to create a forum for publishing (online) your works in progress and those “finished” to get: • Praise (Bless) • Clarification (Address) • Revision suggestions (Press)

  4. New Site… • Proboards • A little more content, same old reason to be there • What you can post (should post)… • your writing from the day at camp • writing you’ve created outside of camp (yes, even that stuff your teacher or parent has claimed is a little weird) • poetry, short stories, memoirs, essays, plays, scripts, letters and other genre!

  5. Rules??? How about procedures…. • You’ll have 15-20 minutes of lab time to use for posting and responding at camp each day. • Know the kind of feedback you want and ask for it! Don’t assume or let them guess. • It isn’t a social networking site! Facebook is Facebook, you can text your camp friends, but on the blog… blog about writing only, please • consider reading the work aloud – it helps with the flow – remind yourself, “this is what he/she wants from me”

  6. More to Know… • After you post and you’ve gotten feedback, consider: • Did the responses help you see your work in a different light? • Did they confirm something you wondered? • Did anything said surprise you? • Was anything you wrote unclear? • What’s next for you in finishing or revising the piece for yourself, publishing or for just moving on? • Continue the conversation – that’s what blogs are about – threads! (And that’s what writing is about – making it always better and better and better!)

  7. How long is it available? • Forever… even the old blog used last year is still “up” • Can others sign up? Parents? Friends? Ah, no. • Offensive, inappropriate posts aren’t acceptable – we are, as Miss Tedra says, family. Our family isn’t ugly to one another…. • What if someone posts something bad or insulting • Words are powerful, use them wisely • Sometimes what you write is confusing… what you write needs to be what you mean… but even then someone may misunderstand what you’ve written. Reread it before you “post”.
