Introduction

Hello,
I am Melissa Baker, and this is my very first blog. I am not extremely good with technology, but this summer I am taking a class on using computers in education. Creating this blog is one of the assignments. I was not too thrilled about having to figure out the blog, but so far it has not been too bad. At first, the blog was a little overwhelming. As I looked around though, it became a little bit easier.
One thing that I really liked was being able to design my blog and make it look cute. Another thing I really liked about the blog was the ability to use the blog in an educational setting. The blog allows up to a hundred authors and anyone can follow the blog. Teachers can use a blog to do research and share ideas for lessons, solving issues in the classroom, or just support and encouragement. Also, teachers could use the blog for a class forum or as a way for students to get to know each other and work together.
As I said before I am not very techy. The only advice I have would be to just spend time clicking on the different pages and tabs to see what is available. I tend to learn best by exploring and doing things for myself.
