Today, a few of my fellow Ivy League and I attended a blogging tutorial at Hercules Middle High School. Despite the meeting being scheduled at 2 PM, my mother and I left the house at 12:30 PM, in fear of being late for whatever reason. Needless to say, because of our head start, my mother and I arrived over an hour early. But the early bird catches the worm, right?
My next problem was actually finding the room the tutorial was being held in, as I had never been to Hercules Middle High School before and the campus was slightly confusing at first. Fortunately, it wasn't too long before I found the classroom in questions, Room 106.
The tutorial itself was really informative and cleared up a few questions and concerns I had. Don went over some of how the next few months are going to go, upcoming events, on what we should pack for our trip, and, most importantly how and when to blog.
I learned how to add pictures to my posts too. |
After Don had finished explaining everything to us, it was time for some hands-on experience and Don had us log into our Blogger accounts and try out what we had just learned. We had a few technical problems starting out, due to how old some of the computers we were using were, but eventually we got everything up and running. I learned how to do do things such as format, proofread, and accentuate my posts into what you're reading now! Soon enough, we had gone over everything that we needed to and it was time to clean up and head home.
Overall, I learned a lot from today and I really enjoyed the tutorial. All the information was a bit overwhelming, but also really helpful and informative. I think that I may have left the tutorial more nervous than before it began, but I also left more excited and anxious about all the other events that are coming up.
