September 10 - Assignment

Questions, questions and more questions!

Today we will learn how to post links to our blog. We will insert them into a new post and to a link list in the sidebar.

Saving URL's (Uniform Resource Locator, previously Universal Resource Locator, is the unique address for a file that is accessible on the Internet) is important to know how to do because we will need to be able to do this. Remember your blog is your process journal and you will need to record important information that you will need to complete your design folder.

  1. Let's practice posting links in our blogs.
  2. INVESTIGATION - Use a search engine (like Google or Yahoo) to research "digital storytelling".
    What is digital storytelling?
    What programs can we use for digital storytelling?
    Are any of these tools open-source? (Open-source tools are are free! Another name is Freeware.)
    Remember to keep all of the URL's for documentation purposes. (We will need this information when we are creating our design folder for assessment).
  3. INVESTIGATION - Find 3 examples of photostories online. Record the URL's. How were the PhotoStories used? Were they personal? Were they scholatic?
