Lesson 5 – Project Space

LESSON TOPICS:

  • How to Create a WordPress Blog

For today’s lesson, we will be following a step-by-step tutorial to set up a WordPress Blog.

This blog site is where you will post all of your blog posts for this class, and it is also where your Project Media culminating project will be uploaded.

Please Follow Along Closely

We will work as a group to ensure every person’s successful creation of a blog site.

If you finish a step and are waiting to move to the next step, please help a neighbor. The faster everyone finishes each step, the faster we complete the blog creation process.

NOTE: Raise your hand if you need me to pause the video. If I am helping someone else, please ask a neighbor for assistance who is available.

For your blog, you will create two tabs:

  1. BLOGS
  2. PROJECT MEDIA VIDEO ESSAY
