My midterm presentation concern a blog site which is a free mini website easy to use and easy to share information with others.A blog is more helpful because it allows people to read the thoughts of author and comment to them.
Blog is a fundamental tool to online learning; preparation, uploading and sharing information and documents online.Identifying myself by my real name will help my blog visitors to identify information related to me. My aim is to develop a tool that could, show the blogger the state of its privacy settings.

centered Encourages learners to be active throughout
the course period Helps learners to improve writing
competencies Captures changes in thinking Invite people to collaborate Makes education more informal…

My PLE is a way to achieve my objectives http://kagas.wordpress.com/2011/02/07/my-ple/The future work will be effective becouse many people of our institution or outside the institution will contibute.
What is the applicability of the blog to my context and support for future work?
A blog allows me to post questions about the programming language and get answer from the community.
When I get error in the codes, I post the error on the blog and get various solutions at the same place.
It creates a Community by reacting on the posts I made
I don't need to worry about site creation costs and maintenance fees when using free blog sites
The blog helped me to build up my online network
