1 A Reference guide on the Blogs tool in your LMS The blogs tool in your LMS provides an effective way to share and communicate your thoughts, opinions and understanding on a lesson or topic with your instructor and subject members. You can record and share your analysis, evaluation and research on a topic by creating a blog entry. You can also link files, add images, and embed videos in your blog entry. Your instructor creates blogs for you to post entries. Depending on how your instructor designs the use of this tool for learning, you may have access to three types of blogs Subject, Individual and Group. Subject blogs function like common blogs or public blogs in which all subject members can create and post entries. When you access a Subject blog, on the blog page, you can view all entries that every subject member has posted. In addition, all subject members can read and comment on each other s entries. Individual blogs on the contrary, function like private blogs in which each member can create an individual entry. When you access an Individual blog, on the blog page, you only view entries that you created and posted. To read entries posted by your peers, you will need to access their blog page. In Individual blogs, you cannot post on blog pages of your peers. You can read their entries and comment on the entries. A Group blog is available if your instructor enabled the blog tool for your group. In Group blogs, all subject members can read and comment on the entries posted by the group members. However, only members of the group can create and post entries in the blog. You can refer to this guide for instructions on how to use the blogs tool. Alternatively, click each link for instructions on using a specific function within the tool. Access the blogs tool Create a blog entry and embed videos to your entry Access draft blog entries Edit or Delete a blog entry Comment on a blog entry View blog grades Access the blogs tool You can access the blogs tool from your subject s navigation menu. Your instructor can also include links for the blogs tool in the content area for your learning materials such as your subject s interactive schedule and activity section in topic packs. Let us now look at how you can access the blogs tool: 1. To access the Blogs page, on your subject s navigation menu, click the Blogs link. The default view of the Blogs page lists all the blog topics that are available to you for posting entries. You can sort the view on this page to list only Subject blogs or Individual and Group blogs. For example, to view a list of your Individual blogs and Group blogs, on the Blogs page, click the down arrow for Display Blogs, and then in the list, click My Blogs. This displays all your Individual blogs and blogs for the group in which you are a member.
2 2. To access a blog topic page, on the Blogs page, in the list of blog topics, click the blog topic for which you want to post an entry. Click a blog topic This displays the blog topic page. The blog topic page is divided into two sections: the content area and the side panel. The content area of the blog topic page displays all the blog entries for that topic. If your instructor created the blog for the purpose of a graded activity, your instructor may include instructions on how to proceed with the activity, timelines for submission, and grading criteria. You can view these details in the Blog Instructions section. The side panel includes the Blog Details, author, Grade and Index sections. The Blog Details section specifies the blog type and lists the number of entries and comments in the blog. The author section varies for a Subject blog and Individual blog. For a Subject blog, the author section displays the title as All Subject Members and lists all members who posted entries in that blog. For an Individual blog, the author section displays your name as title and lists all members who have created entries for their individual blogs. The Grade section will display your blog grade, learner feedback and rubrics if your instructor associated a rubric to your activity. The Index section lists all blog entry titles for the current week or month depending on the settings your instructor selects when creating the blog. The title for the most recent blog entry appears first in the Index section.
3 3. To view the number of entries and comments in the blog, on the blog topic page, in the upper-left corner of the side panel, click Blog Details. Click Blog Details again to collapse the view and hide the details. 4. To view a list of subject members who posted blog entries, in the side panel, click All Subject Members. This displays a list of members with the number of entries they posted. To view all subject members who have access to the blog but may not have posted entries, in the All Subject Members list, select the Show Members without Entries check box. 5. To access entries posted by a specific subject member, in the side panel, click All Subject Members, and then in the list, click the subject member s name. For example, to view entries posted by Naomi Brown, in the side panel, click All Subject Members, and then in the list, click Naomi Brown. This displays the blog entry posted by Naomi Brown in the content area of the blog topic page. To return to the blog topic page with all entries, in the side panel, click Naomi Brown, and then in the list, click All Subject Members

To read entries that a subject member posted in their Individual blog, on your Individual blog topic page, in the side panel, click your name, and then in the list click the subject member s name.

You can view and access the content editor functions within the message box when you reply to a post, create a blog or journal entry and send an message.
