=Playtime Blog & Wiki= We ran out of time during the inset session, but here are the log-ins if you like to play by yourself.

Your log-in here is the same as a student's might be. You can read & write and insert pictures, etc, but not change any major features. You will start on the DASHBOARD. I recommend you click NEW POST and write a book review and then try add a picture to your post. If you're feeling adventurous, then go to LAYOUT, click ADD A GADGET, and explore the different toy/tools. Here is a picture to help explain -

I recommend you start by writing something on the HOME page, and then try creating a NEW PAGE, add some text, pictures, investigate the EMBED WIDGET button. The sidebar will be updated with you page link automatically. Here is a picture to help explain -
