Getting started


How many times have I been taught that a good story, essay, lecture, lesson has a beginning, a middle and an end? Well this is a beginning - the start of a blog. The purpose is to harness this process to teaching but I can see just who is going to be doing most of the learning already!

I think it seems an exciting way of communicating and can only be thankful that the wonders of the technology involved can make the whole thing look so amazing with relatively little effort on my part. Doing the research to see what other bloggers do has been fun and in most cases impressive. I think the secret to being successful - as with most of the ITC I have embraced (or dabbled with) - is having a clear sense of purpose and audience and to keep those constantly in mind regardless of the media involved.
