The heart is beating again

- Last Thursday I used my minitalk to talk about our English blog, since the subject was optional. As I told my class, Lisa had made me one of the administrators on the blog - which gives me the "power" to change anything from design to comments. Why? Because I want to bring this blog back to life, owing the fact that I think bloging is extremly fun.
In my minitalk, I asked my class what we could do to improve our blog, and I was impressed and pleased that so many was interested to make an effort.

Some of the students ideas was to give certain people tasks to write about. For an example, I could write a post about my holiday, and then I would tell someone else to write about their lunchbreak. Since writing and posting on this blog has become a duty, we want to remove the feeling that we have to write something long and serious that our teachers may judge our skills on. The good news is, from now on we can write about irrelevant subjects, and it doesn't need to be 2000 words. We can choose to write about something that engange us, something we care about, persons or whatever we want, and of course - something serious.

We need interesting topics, which the stundent themselves shoud engange in. The teachers are now not obligated to give us tasks to write about, but they are free to post whatever they like.

Some of the studenst in 1STA, or was it Tone (?) - I'm not quite sure. But however, they came up with the idea that we could have a monthly award for the best writer/most active writer here on the blog. What do you think about that?

I hope everyone of you are positive to bring our blog back to life, I sure am!
- Just one last question - what do you think about the design? Is it good enough?
