To set up a Wordpress account for a class, students should go to Wordpress.com and create a free username, which can be their own name or a pseudonym. They should then email their username to the instructor and sign in with that username when posting work. If any student needs help setting up their account, they should see the instructor.

1. Setting up your
Wordpress Account
Email me if you
need help!

2. In order to do the homework, you must establish an account. To
make your own FREE Word Press account, go to Wordpress.com.
The system will walk you through the steps to set up your own
user-friendly Word Press blog. Alternatively, you can sign into our
website through Facebook or Twitter.
If you prefer not to use your own name, you may use a
pseudonym. Just make sure you sign in with YOUR Word Press
username before you post on our class page so you get credit for
your work. Please email me your username once you have
established which account you shall use for the quarter.
If you cannot establish your website and username, please see me
as soon as possible, and I will help you with the process. Much of
our work will take place online, so establishing this connection is
mandatory.
