c2Apps - more beautiful blogs

I have just finished class with 9 new Certificate II students where I showed them how to create blogs. They took to it like ducks to water and six of the nine have shared their blog addresses with the other students so far. They have also been great posting to an Introduction forum in their newly created Moodle classroom, including responding to each other's posts.

What absolutely perplexes me is why the Certificate III class who created the blogs last week and seemed just as keen have not shared them with anyone else nor has anyone of the thirteen introduced themselves on the Introduction discussion forum!!! I spoke to one of the students today and he said he wasn't going to go first so I have asked one of the other students who is an extremely keen mature age student to please go and be the first one to post so hopefully the others will follow suit. It is just rather amazing the difference between the two classes. I will have to wait and see if anyone else posts today or tomorrow. Otherwise my next plan of action will be to give them time first thing in class on Wednesday to do it. Buggered if I know!!! :-0

I am currently in class with 13 new Certificate III students demonstrating how to use blogs. They are all creating their own blogs and their first posting!!!! We also looked at Remember The Milk to keep to-do lists and Google calendar.
