1. First, type your article/response in MS Word. Have someone read it over to be sure you are answering the question completely and clearly. Be sure to spell check! Save your work with the title of the assignment, just in case


2. Next, go to blog website


3. At the top left corner, log in using the “username” and “password” that was given to you in class.


4. Find “Articles” at the top of your page and click on it.  A page will open up that will allow you to copy your response from MS Word and paste it into the box below. (To make it more personal, click on “graphical”-this will allow you to change your font, the color, background, etc.)


5. When you are ready to submit, give your posting a title and click the “assignment” drop down menu to choose the correct assignment to post to. 


6. Check the “request to publish” box and click on the “save” button.


7. At this point, your article should post to the bottom of the exact page you are on. If it did not, then you will need to repeat steps 4-6 above.
   
   
   
   • Check with me either in person or by e-mail to be sure your response has been received.
   
   
   
   


8. In a day or two, log back in to your blog to see if your article has been posted. If it has not, please see me!

Are you wondering if I made any comments to your blog? Do you want to know what your grade is?

Log in to your page as usual.  Click on "Articles".  Scroll down to your latest blog and click it.  After it opens, be sure you are on "text" and not "graphical".  When in "text" under the box where your response is, will be my comments and grade in italicized print. 

IF YOU DECIDE TO MAKE CORRECTIONS, GO BACK INTO GRAPHICAL AND USE A DIFFERENT COLOR FOR ANY OF YOUR NEW INFORMATION.  Make the corrections, save it and request publishing. :)

See me if you need help or have any questions!
