Easy tutorial for beginners

Jane Petring, this year moderator for Collaborative Blogs at EVO, designed a basic tutorial for her advanced ESL students, which she posted at the class blog. In one of her messages to the list she wrote:
"I figured out a few tricks to make the blog creation more efficient--last week I had them explore blogs to see different layouts, how links are used, how pictures enhance the appearance and so on. For homework I told them to write a short essay (200 words) about Montreal or their hometown and bring in both a printed copy and an electronic copy that they could upload. I also asked them to look for interesting websites they might want to link to and, if possible, digital pictures."
"I created a tutorial for setting up their blogs on the class blog and showed them how to have two windows open at the same time, so they could read my notes and Blogger's instructions at the same time. Nearly all of the students were able to create a blog, upload pictures and links and even leave a comment or two within 45 minutes (last fall it took us 2 hours)."
