My first website and blog

Creating my first website and blog

Yay!  I have created my very own website and this is the beginnings of  my own blog established for my Murdoch University unit EDN113: Living and Learning with Technology to demonstrate my learning and participation in the unit.  I did not know what to expect in creating this.  I created the website using Google sites with my already created Google account. I used the website example found on the resources for the assessment as a guide.  I followed the prompts on the Google site and up popped the website. It was not as hard as I thought it would be.  However I have had some previous experience with technology such as helping to update the website for my Primary School when I was in Year Seven.   It is a bit daunting to think that all this information will be put on the world wide web for all to see.

I have read some information on websites found on Technology Toolbox for Educators and in the textbook 'Meaningful Learning with Technology' on the benefits of blogging and what to include in a blog which have assisted me in gaining some background knowledge before embarking on this learning journey.











I am in the Generation that was brought up with technology and used it to assist me in my schooling so using various technologies is not as hard for me as it is for others.  But I only use technology when I need to such as for typing documents, making slideshows, emails and editing photos.

I see this as a great opportunity to share my learning of this unit and my development of new skills with my peers and lecturers and compare with my peers.

Until next post:-)
