As I mentioned earlier, students in LALT 101 are blogging their assignments this semester. While several students opted to shut down their blogs to all but their classmates and me, several others left theirs open to the world. Students aren’t required to use anything other than the standard WordPress template and certainly aren’t expected to blog anything other than LALT 101 homework. But some have gone above and beyond.
First, a basic blog.
Now, some with more personality.
One student was so pleased with his customized blog header–a photo of him wearing his signature shoes–that he came to class early to show me.
A few students have actually blogged on their blogs (imagine!).
One student answers the questions with a bit of extra personality.
And several others have played with different WordPress themes.
If you’re interested in knowing more about the class and lesson plans, and the questions these students are answering, check out the LALT 101 wiki.
