About the blog:

As a course participant of " University of Oregon-AEI's Building Teaching Skills Through The Interactive Web - Fall 2014" program, I take great pleasure in creating and updating this blog. In the Webskills Homepage, my reflections on what I learned each week and how I intend to implement my learning in my work as a teacher will be the main area of focus. In the India: My Homeland Page, I would like to share with you some anecdotes from my life, stories regarding my students, the schooling system in my country and a few snippets about India. Thank you for visiting. Please, do leave your valuable comments.

Experiments of a new blogger - Week 1, Post 1


The Silver Lining:

I have never created a blog before. I was very apprehensive and doubtful. Then I started experimenting and it no more seemed difficult. The dark clouds of doubt were blown away very soon. I could see the silver lining!

I visited a few sites (Ref #1), looked up some interesting blogs (Ref # 2-4), googled, "How to create your own blog?", went through the blogger instructions sent by Courtney and there I was looking at my very own first blog in wonder. Wow! I am impressed with my performance.

I have earlier gone through blogs pertaining to news articles and the national geographic blog, which is my favorite, as I am a travel enthusiast. I felt that it was only possible for web designers to create blogs. Now I know that I can do it too. So can my students. It may not be high quality, but it can surely be heart-felt.

I am now excited about making improvements to my blog. How do I do this? How do I do that? I feel like a child who is experimenting with new things. I am looking forward to all your suggestions and advice.
