  3. 1 Getting Started Register with WordPress.com

  5. 2 Getting Published Create Your First Post/Page

  6. Getting Published Once you have a blogspace, you may share webpages with others. If you are developing an essay to share with an instructor, it is recommended first writing it in WORD, using grammar and spell checking, and then copying it to a new webpage in your blog.

  7. Getting Published From the blogspace’s dashboard, add a new page… 1 2 copy the essay into the text box and then title the page

  8. Getting Published click on publish… 3 4 view the page, and, if satisfied, copy the URL and send it to anyone with whom you wish to share the page.

  9. 3 Controlling your privacy Limit the access to viewing your blog

  10. Controlling your privacy In the dashboard, go to Settings > privacy To limit access to your ePortfolio but to allow your instructor or others to see your efforts, please type the individuals’ wordpress usernames in the users box on this privacy settings page.

  11. Please note… • For more instructions, Professor Martin Seymour from the Communication Department has developed online modules on developing one’s ePortfolio using WordPress at http://seym3stu.wordpress.com/getting-started/ • A template for an Eastern ePortfolio with menu items that may be copied is found at http://stolofd.wordpress.com/ • If you have large documents - video files, graphics, pdf files – you might consider making use of the skydrive in live@edu that is attached Eastern’s email system. Remember: If you have any questions on the process, please connect Dr. Stoloff at stoloffd@easternct.edu

  12. skydrive in live@edu The following guide was taken from How to create a live.edu SkyDrive – to the clouds! The original guide was developed by Anne Muessel, History/Social science and Environmental Earth Science major, Fall 2010 FYR 174 Peer mentor & Dr. David Stoloff, Professor, Education Department, Eastern CSU (June 25, 2010). For more information, please contact Dr. David Stoloff at stoloffd@easternct.edu

  13. skydrive in live@edu 1. Logging In Eastern is in a partnership to offer live.edu accounts to all enrolled students and alumni. To access these accounts, students need to go to Outlook Live at http://outlook.com. Those who have access to this site should see… Students’ Windows Live ID would be the same user’s name as issued on campus – lastnamefirstinitial . Your password should be the same as the one you use for accessing computers on campus.

  14. skydrive in live@edu 2. Adding Files to your SkyDrive. After logging in, students will see their email account on live@edu, which has 25 gigabytes of memory. The student email page would look like this… Pull down the menu by “More” (see arrow) and select “SkyDrive” (highlighted in yellow).

  15. skydrive in live@edu 2. Adding Files to your SkyDrive. To add files to your Skydrive, it asks for some general personal information – year of birth and country – to avoid scamming systems. You should only need to deal with this webpage the first time. Once complete click “I accept.”

  16. skydrive in live@edu 2. Adding Files to your SkyDrive. The SkyDrive initial page looks like this… Add a file by clicking on “Add files” in the menu bar on this page.

  17. skydrive in live@edu 2. Adding Files to your SkyDrive. There is 25 GB of storage space in the SkyDrive, but one may not upload files larger than 2 GB at one time. You can add files from your computer using this standard browsing, attaching process. (Click “Browse…” find and open your file then click “Upload.”)

  18. skydrive in live@edu 2. Adding Files to your SkyDrive. Notice how the file is saved in a public or a locked folder. If the file is public, it will be open to all who have a live.edu account to view. If locked, you must give permission for viewing. Then, share documents in the folder by editing the permission and including those people you wish to have access to the document. It would be a good idea to create a large semester folder and sub-folders within Fall 2011, for example, for each of your courses.

  19. skydrive in live@edu 2. Adding Files to your SkyDrive. Once you are at the new page, click “My Documents”:
