Sam’s Online Journal

This is a really cool thing I discovered on Prac :-o. I don’t know about everyone else but I had never heard of this before. It is just like publishing on the internet, except you can only access it on school networked computers because it is actually part of the intranet.

Every student has their own page and at the moment they are only publishing their school work. It hasn’t yet become a virtual journal type thing yet, but my co-operating teacher really liked the idea.

I was shocked when I first saw it ’cause I thought it was part of the internet and the class I was with was posting photos of the students on their ‘home’ pages as well as personal details like their address and date of birth etc. But I was soon put at ease when the teacher explained it was part of the intranet.
