Introduction.

BLOG IT!


BLOGs are websites that interactive sources of information that usually are concentrated on a particular subject matter and/or community. What makes BLOGs different than traditional websites is the ability for a reader to provide feedback on the website in response to content that is featured/displayed on the website. BLOGS build community if done right. And your school would like to start a BLOG.

They have chosen you and awarded you a contract to create a BLOG website for your school that will serve as a place for all school community members to post news and share ideas.

Now that you have the job, you must design and create a BLOG that will engage your school community to want to read, post and contribute content on the BLOG you design.

Before you can do that, you must define what sorts of content matters to your school community?

The flow chart below details how the BLOG IT! project will achieve the ultimate goal of creating a BLOG for your schoo.
