If you’re interested in student blogging you must have a look at Craig’s amazing blog. The title is his - but he’s not kidding.
Backstory: This is one of the blogs started yesterday, just before lunch, by an autistic S1 student who was completely new to WordPress.
He’s already using Pages to build up a web site about his hobby, birds. Here are just some examples:
Not only were Craig and his classmate Fraser reluctant to leave at lunchtime, I notice this blog has been developing this evening. Why not have a look, and leave a comment?
This is a powerful demonstration of how WordPress might be used in the context of the Extreme Learning Curriculum development.

Posted by David Gilmour in : Uncategorized, autism , 4commentsAt Ollie’s invitation, I set up a couple of blogs for two autistic S1 students at Musselburgh Grammar School.
