Blogger

Using blogger was a main part of my project. I had to frequently upload new blog posts showing my progress. Before this I had never used blogger before so didn’t have any knowledge of it. I am now able to make posts on different sites such as slide share and emaze and post them on my blog. Using the blog has allowed me to become a consumer and a producer. I have consumed texts from the internet as well as produced text which I have posted on my blog and can be seen by a global audience.

I had never used these before so didn’t have any knowledge of them however I can now create presentations on emaze and Prezi and have learnt how to upload PowerPoint presentations onto blogger through slide share.
