Getting started

Welcome everyone to our blog project. First I would like to explain to you why we are doing this: I want to show you how to work with your future students through blogs, and there is no better way than to get you to run one yourself. You will be able to see how much practice in English you can get by writing your blog and reading others. I hope this won't be just another duty - try to see it as an opportunity to express yourselves in English in a less formal way, by addressing real people whom you know very well and who may be really interested in what you have to say. Try to use this project, too, as a way of learning about other people, about yourselves, about English... The outcome of all this depends largely on you: if you want it to work, it will. :)
I have given you some time to get started, to present yourselves to the others in the most natural way. If you're having problems finding things to say, I would like you to write the following:
Tell us what brought you to our college and how you found out about it. Try to recall your state of mind at the time - what expectations you had and how you felt. OK?
Don't delay any more - do it now! :)

New blogs coming soon!

To anyone who depends on this blog in terms of links to others:
This year's IT course has come to the point at which the blog project is starting. I have decided to run it on this site again instead of building a new one (I guess I need a sense of continuity here), so I will have to remove last year's links. I want to keep those which are still fully alive, though, plus a few which were the most interesting to look at. Sorry if I'm subjective here, but there's no other way. BTW: If there's anyone who would rather not have their link here, just let me know.
Please copy URLs of any 2006 blogs you would like to return to in the future, then. And take a look at the new blogs that are going to appear here soon.
