Welcome CIC classmates

Thanks for visiting my blog. I have some trouble with it because I can't get blogger.com to display everything in English. When you read posts here that say the homework didn't load up the display for the site shifted to Japanese and I had trouble loading it as a result.

Regardless, welcome! I chose to post this as my blog rather than create a new one because I want to alter the contents of this blog for the next group of students who will use it. This blog was created for my two year IGCSE class so they could access homework questions. They also created blogs and posted their answers on their blog. However, the students and I both felt that the blog system wasn't being used to its fullest potential so I began posting links to sites we discussed or looked at in class. But I still felt it wans't maximizing its potential. Do you have any ideas for me?

While you are considering it I have posted an article that highlights the importance of media/visual literacy that we discussed in a past modules, and that we read in Chapter 1 of the text. I am very interested in what you think about this article and the animation graphic within it:

The Power of Photoshop
