so if I want to create
a new blog on Google Blogger
there are several steps. first of all I'm going to open up
my Safari and and going to get a Kindle
so I'm going to leave this one up and I'm going to open a new window
for myself yeah
and I'm going to go to Google I
aum's signed in on my Google account I leave myself signed in so
you may have to sign yourself and if you're not already signed in
when I scroll across the top on going to go and buy find more
and I'm going to go to Blogger
now as you can see
I already have several blogs I have this one that I created as a sample
I have miss mattis is too which I'm a contributor on which mall contributor
on I have the joint one for miss Madison myself an art and I have one from last
year
called daily scribe blog so
I'm going to show you how to create a new blog
very very simple you simply quick
new blog you give it a title
and I will
call it missus alleles
online
for polio because thats
really white you want to name it the online portfolio because that's the goal
of this blog that's what you're going to be doing as
uploading and attaching your
I'm self-selected writing assignments the address
if you just butt something simple in here like
your first name or a nickname or something like that
I brandy
at all sometimes I don't like
which put in there because somebody else already have
that on missus
L online
or Korea K like that on
shows me the address is available you can select
a template for now and you can change it later
you don't like it I'm just kinda look through here see which one you like
I'm gonna try the picture when no one and click on create blog
and in a couple seconds it will create for me
p
so here you go my online portfolio
is there that's the lot but I just created white
I need for you to do
is
to click on this little a row
and make sure your settings are correct
click on Settings because this is a student
portfolio account I don't want it to be I want to be marked private
so there's your blog address
its and their blog of terrorists
I added myself on their blogger readers
you want to I have a under public and we don't want it
public seem adequate at it and you want
too quick click private so that you can actually select the readers
now first and foremost you're going to have to add
me on there because I'm your teacher and
I'm going to be grading this block
so you can use my email address for school Lockwood be
at penn-trafford dork
and click Save Changes
if you know that you want your friends
or your parents or somebody else that has a gmail to be able to look at your
online portfolio make sure you put it under here under blog readers
not under blog of Paris you don't want other people to be able to change
that and two on to at your blog
unless you're doing it and having somebody
in a moderate moderate it bed I don't recommend that I just
think that you should keep this private and only at
blog readers okay so
the important things are done you set up your basic block
and you corrected it so that you have a private blog
next you can just go on simply be your blog and see what you have on their
now there won't be much I have a picture uploaded on mine
and I don't want you to include a picture on your sis
because again you know for privacy reasons
but if you have a Google+ account this is where you're actually going to at the
profile information
you can click on your name antic
brings up your Google Plus information
where you're going
to arm at the information to show up
under your profile is within this section
I have a lot more on here than probably some love you
have because I've had this
for you know couple of years but for you to change what shows
and for you to include your information for your I'm
your first blog entry you can pick a picture
or a background I'm just going to pick the horses I like that one
my cover photo there we go
and ongoing to
change
Mike information here I don't want
anything on here for you
as far as your privacy information I don't want you to add an email phone
number address or any of that
so you're going to skip that and
your basic information again I don't really want to add anything there
but you can add
on a scroll back up so you can see under your story
this is where you can put
you know a brief description of yourself again not including any public
information
you can include your introduction on
and then bragging rights things they
you think make you special on
follow the guidelines that I included on there for you
and again be very very cautious so that you don't have any
private information shared you can change
this so that it's only for your circles to view
and that would be
that would mean that on people that you
you how you have to add viewers then you're going to save it
at an entire anything so it didn't save anything
once I close
that out I've changed all my information and I view my blog
any updates would be available
under my about me when I click on my name
okay and there you go I roll down there for that and there's my picture
and it would include information I only have on here you know where I live and
my school district but again I'm an adult
and I can include that information I don't want you to include any props
private information about yourself just some basic information
and some fun things K so have fun
will continue to play with this over the course up the year
and you'll create your own online portfolio
