Second IS Lesson : The differences between a blog and a website

Today, our teacher taught us how to make an account at http://webnewmedia.ning.com/. First, he taught us that in order to make an account at this website, we must set our age as thirteen as the age limit is thirteen, not twelve. Then, he taught us to go to the lesson blogs to check what have we learned every lesson. After this, he told us to submit our blog URL to him. But when he asked who didn't make a blog to stand up, half of the the class stood up! I was pretty shocked as this homework was assigned to hand in today! But lukily, our teacher is not too angry. He asked the people who have not made a blog to hand in the URL to him before 2 pm.

Then, he split our whole class of 33 pupils into 3 groups of 11. He told each group to watch a different video. After watching,he asked each of us to post a response on http://webnewmedia.ning.com/ of about one hundred words about the video. We also need to look at other people's response (at least two)and write feedbacks of each more than 50 words.(We do not need to hand in on that day. The deadline is Thursday. YEAH!!!)My video is about whether a blog is better or a website is better. In my response, I have to include the advantages and disadvantages of a blog and a website. I think that a blog is better than a website as it is easier to make and takes very short time. Most importantly, we do not need to spend money!
