What is a Blog?

Blog is short for weblog (web log), a frequent and chronological publication of comments and thoughts available on the web.  An online journal.

This online tutorial 'How to Blog-A Guide for mySBISD Users' is an introduction to blogging, WordPress, and the My SBISD Blog Community. In this tutorial, we will show you how to create and maintain a blog on the My SBISD Community Blog. Issues for teachers, administrators and district employees who wish to create a professional education blog, as well as teachers who want to blog WITH their students will be addressed.

Acceptable Use/SBISD Guidelines
My SBISD Community Blogging Site

January 2008: Spring Branch ISD has begun an online community blogging site for the district called My SBISD. At this time, there are several classrooms throughout the district who are piloting programs where teachers and students create and maintain blogs for educational and instructional purposes. If you are not a part of this pilot program, hopefully in the near future, as the “kinks get worked out”, more and more teachers will be afforded this opportunity.

For all other teachers and employees of Spring Branch ISD, there is a limited amount of blog space being made available. With this part of the blogging initiative, teachers and employees can participate by creating their own professional blog.

If you are interested in creating a professional blog for your classroom or department, please visit the My SBISD Community blog site and create your own blog. You must be a district employee and you must use your Spring Branch ISD employee email address when you set your blog up.

Before creating your site, please download and read the Teachers Blogging Acceptable Use Guidelines.

In the near future, look for online tutorials that will show how to use the blogging feature.
