The class started with me losing my password to my 1st Blog Site (silly me, must be my age). I tried to access it back but word press didn’t send it back. Anyway, Rolly patiently instructed me to apply for another blog site…and guess, here I am.
Again, I learn an important lesson – “NEVER TRUST YOUR MEMORY, if ever you have one. Hehe…”
Rolly taught us the various ways to enrich our blogging skills. First, I learned to copy and paste an article from Tony Vincent’s website – no offense to the handheld guru. I learned to upload photos from google managing these from the wordpress powered edublog. I also learned to add web links in my blog post to be able to add credibility to whatever I may write – not that I am less credible. The chainlink toolbar was helpful. I should not forget the blog etiquettes – write the complete URLs in both blog post and link definition. Moreover, I learned to link from my word post to a WEB pic, so cool ha! This will create a suspense as to which picture I will lead my reader to- perhaps, my awesome body shots – ngikks! I could also use the Tree Tool bar to paste the photo from a website with ease.
I also learned to create categories… a helpful way to organize my disorganize thoughts.
Lastly, our class ended with Rolly’s litany of our class requirements which are challenging and exciting. I really thought that even if they are additional workloads, they also are additional UPGRADES to my professional career. Innovate to educate!
Again, thanks Rolly for your generosity and patience!

Great post, Norman. Next time “WRITE PASSWORDS DOWN!” Haha. It’s great to see that you are learning a bunch of things in these professional development classes. I hope that you will continue using this blog. You can also create a personal blog (in case you’ll use this one as your professional blog) through http://www.blogger.com. The body shots can remain in your camera. Please. Yes, the assignments are a lot to add to our already busy schedules — but they’re very fulfilling. Go-go handhelds! Keep blogging!
