ACTIVITIES

Each week, you will select a “thing” from the drop-down menu in the ACTIVITIES tab above. As you complete each activity, share your experience with your colleagues by writing a short blog post. Finally, take the time to read and comment on each other’s blogs (Once everyone gets started, Mia will create a blogroll under the Participant Blogs tab). 

To begin, go to Activities > Thing 1 and follow the steps provided.
