Hi, I have no idea who you are, but I have a question. I want to post things on my page called “Hi” but I don’t know how. Other people could do it but I can’t. Even when I’m logged off or when I’m logged on. Please help. And also, please visit m blog. twmfchcc.edublogs.org
About Me
My name is Claire Thompson and I teach at a Distributed Learning (DL) school in Penticton, BC, Canada. My subjects are Science (8-10), Math (8-10), and Biology (11 & 12). I’ve been teaching since ‘98, but this is just my third year at a DL school. Teaching in a DL school is very different than teaching in a bricks-and-mortar school; I’ve been on a really steep learning curve! This year my focus is to explore how to use technology to;
- improve communication between my students and me
- foster collaboration among students
- make the curriculum more relevant to students
- make the curriculum more interesting to students
I am using this blog as a way to clarify my thinking on technology and education. Please feel free to share your thoughts on what I’ve posted; I love getting comments, and I always respond. If you’ve time, watch the quick hello (12 secs) from me below. If you are using Internet Explorer, the video below may not show up, in that case go here (and consider switching to Firefox

OMG! Your from Canada! I live in Florida. It’s really rainy and hot. Before I used to live in Connecitcut. Before that, I used to live in California. And before that, I used to live in Japan. In social stdies, we just learned about Canada. You must live in British Columbia, right?

Hi Mai (twmfchcc), yes I live in British Columbia. It’s a great place, perhaps you can add it to the extensive list of places that you have visited / lived
With respect to your ‘Hi’ page, are you wanting to allow comments, or put up more posts? If you want to allow comments, then you’ll have to go into the setting for that page and select comments. If you are wanting to add more posts you may be out of luck. My understanding with Word Press blogs is that a page is a place where you have a single post. I’m no expert in this so you may want to do a bit more digging.

Hi,
I’m a science teacher at an inner city school in London, England.
I have been running a “collaborative blog” and film project at http://www.whyscience.co.uk which seeks to find a satisfying answer to the question “why is science important?”. Please take a look and forward the link to anyone else who might be interested.
Thanks,

@Alom Shaha, thanks for sharing your site. I’m always keen to see how others are promoting science
