Course activation: Blog and learning journal

To enable communication to the participants of a course activation, you can activate a Blog or a Learning journal. Thus activate the option Course blog and define if it is a blog or a learning journal.

Blog

The description “Blog” makes sense, if there are no concrete specifications, which content should be published.

Learning journal

The description “Learning journal” should motivate the learner to write his/her own experiences and to document his/her learning progress and to reflect his/her knowledge.

To create a new blog or new learning journal, choose Course management → Course activation → New course activation → Options → Collaboration tools. To activate this function, set a check box before Course blog.
