SURVEY: immigrant or native?

Filed under: DP - Administrator @ 1:45 am

read this article and post your opinion of where you place yourself in the digital domain.  Do you disagree with O’Briens contention that digital natives suffer from " internet-induced attention deficit disorder?"

Do you have a better analogy for the technology/learning paradigm? i.e  rather than Marc Prensky’s terms of digital immigrant or digital native, do you have another way of contextualising the digital have’s and have not’s?

NECCESSITY: What (if any) are the digital tools you can’t live without?

DESIRE:What currently non-existant or emergent technology would top your technology wish list?

LogIn to your Blogsome account and go to plugins.

Deactivate the WYSI-wordpress tab.

Test Image Upload and Embed

Filed under: DP - Administrator @ 4:21 am

the code for embedding an image in a blog post is:

<img src=’/images/sunflarecopy.jpg’ alt=’’ /> 

where, in this case, sunflarecopy.jpg is the name of the image.

Process
Create the image you wish to embed/publish using Photoshop. Ensure the file size is 72 dpi(Image-Image Size).
Resize the image to suit your needs:don’t make it wider than your blog page…e.g. the sunflareimage above is 5cm x 3.6 cm. 

Select: File– Save for Web and Devices, and output as a jpg or png if it is a continuous tone image (or gif if it is a solid colour graphic).

1. Upload this image by logging in and selecting Upload from the Site Admin of your blog.

2.Copy the code shown when the file is successfully uploaded.

3.Choose HTML from the Write-Write Post menu/

4.Paste the code. Update.

5. Add text to your post in the regular Post window, where the image should now be previewable.

6.View the site and Refresh the browser.
