Setting up your blogbot

1. Access your school e-mail to receive your invite to your space

2. You will need to develop your school blogbot profile:

• For this webspace you will use your school cases code. As a BART award you may be able to change it to a fun but appropriate for school internet handle/name. Think about some names you would like to use for this?


• You  will need to design an avatar to present as your blogbot image. This can change as you choose but must also be appropriate for school. At this stage use DoppelMe to develop your first blogbot/Google account avatar.

• Add other details to your blogbot as interests you. However, note well, your blogbot is a school based space for school based stuff. This means you will not use surnames or addresses of places in your posts without prior approval. Be security conscious folks!

• Finally, be patient as we figure out how to set up the display of some information on your space. Some stuff will be easy for you as an author of your page but some stuff will need teacher assistance and approvals.

Let the force of the blogbot be with you. Value learning and strive for success through belonging, achievement, respect and teamwork.

To access your school e-mail:

Email at home hosted by MSC

Every student in the College has access to an e-mail account established by us when they enrol. These email accounts can be used at school and at home, and are useful for transferring homework to and from the College. Each student’s personal login number is attached to @__________________. A MSC student with a login of abc1234 would have an email that looks like this – abc1234@________________. These emails can be read via the Internet at the College, at home or at a local library, they are for use by the student the entire time they are enrolled at the College.

 

 

Go to a favourite browser and type in the address __________________ to see these email accounts away from the College. The password for the account will be the one the student uses at the College.
