1. Blog name
2. Blog address (The blogspot address that you want may or may not be available to you when you publish your blog, so it is a good idea to think of several different addresses that you would like)
3. Blog description (Think of the 5Ws : 1. What is it about? 2. Who is it for? 3. When was the blog made? 4. Why did you make this blog? 5. Where are you or your blog readers located?)
4. Elements of your blog (What will be on your blog? Will you have a lot of text? A lot of pictures? Will you allow comments? What colours will you use?)
You must show Mr. Ball your work before you move to step 5. If your work is not complete you will have to finish it before adding any images.
5. Clip Art (What images will you use in ClipArt to add to your blog? Remember to use images that are appropriate for your topic. If you are doing the Pony Blog, don't choose pictures of frogs - that's for the Froggy Bloggy!). After you search Clip Art you may then search Creative Commons.
You must cite the source of all information that you use!
(ie. "Information from www.gamesarecoolorwhatever
thewebpageis.com").
Use the keystroke combination of CTRL + C to copy text and CTRL + V to paste the website address or website text into your Word document.
Any information on your blog that is not your own (and has not been cited) will result in a failing grade.
This information will be used in the publishing of your blog. Think about it carefully! Once your blog goes online, it is there for the entire world to see, so make good choices about what you want to publish!
