Main Article Content
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to describe and analyze the experience of creating and using weblogs by English II students at Simon Bolívar University during the quarter January-March 2018. The group received an induction workshop to create and develop their own blog about a famous person or a successful institution, and as a publishing platform for the exercises of the course. During this period, each student created and maintained a personal blog on the topic of his or her choice; during this period, the group was directed, evaluated and given the respective feedback to present it as the final project of the course.
