ETAC Project – Students’ Handout
(Topic: People and the Past)


ETAC stands for “Emerging technology across curriculum”. The aim or goal of this project is to enhance your learning through technical resources integrating more then 2 subjects with IT.


All the “blogger” requires is software that allows people with little or no technical background to update and maintain the blog.


First thing you need to know is what is Blog?
A blog or “Web Log” is a journal on the Internet. The activity of updating a blog is "blogging" and someone who maintains a blog is a "blogger." Blogs are often updated daily and they contain information that the person maintaining the BLOG (Blogger) wishes to share with the world.


Blogs have been identified as an increasingly popular source of online publication, especially regarding political information, opinion publication and alternative news coverage. Users of these “blogs” can post informal journals of their thoughts, comments, and philosophies, updated frequently and normally reflecting the views of the blog's creator.


Blog scripting allows anyone to automatically post information to a web site. The information first goes to a blogger web site. Then the information is automatically inserted into a template tailored for the blog.
- Compiled from multiple sources on the Internet

You will be working with number of soft wares and online resources to complete this project. All concepts will be cleared in class but remember its your project and you are leaders of your project, teachers are a mentor or facilitators to you.
All the best!
