[Year 12 IT Apps] re:Bloggs reply.

[Kent Beveridge]

Thanks Russell, I'll have a look and see what I can find.
 
Since my last posting, I've done a google search and found some free Blog sites. I wonder if we can use them instead of setting up our own. Feedback...isnt that like what happens on a web site 'feedback' page?(user comments page)

Have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blog . A [we]blog is more or
less a personal journal website, with a facility for people to leave
comments.

As for exams, the VCAA and VELS: Speaking for myself, I'm not having an
exam for my middle school IT. The "information products" made in class
and the blog entries describing them and reflecting on them form the
basis for assessment for and of learning. I have no idea whether the
VCCA/VELS dictates any standards etc for blogs as I'm yet to make head
or tail of the ICT domain to be quite honest.
