Week 1 – Introducing Blogging

This blog is designed to serve as a model for EFL students from Pegasus English Language School, who have taken up the Digital Literacy course intended for young learners aged 13-19.

So, hello guys! I guess for most of you this is the first time you are writing a blog about a topic of your interest.

Just to remind you that you can find the resources for the first week on the following link – Padlet: Digital Literacy.

This week, we are going to learn about the basics of blogging, focusing on successful blogs from young bloggers under 18. You will also be introduced to the types of blogs, as well as what it takes to make your topic interesting for a bigger audience.

You will also be shown various blogs for comparison. Finally, you will be given a chance to post your own blogs and give comments to your classmates’ blogs in English, and hopefully become successful bloggers in the future.

Don’t forget to research other bloggers and follow their work closely. After all, one can learn best from other people’s examples!

I hope you enjoy the Digital Literacy course for EFL Students at Pegasus ELS.

Your hosts for this event are Pero Sardzoski, Gjorgji Trpeski and Dejan Stanojevikj.

How do you feel about blogging, and what did you learn this week?

What type of blog do you have and what topics do you write about?

Please leave a comment to share your ideas with the other bloggers!

Thanks for attending the Digital Literacy for EFL Students at Pegasus ELS!
