This morning`s course was very instructive. We learned how to create a weebly homepage with blog. You can see the result of the lesson here :)
I hope you find this site both informative and enjoyable.

A little review of what has gone on so far:
On Saturday I left home at 7.40 to catch my plane from Frankfurt airport. In the afternoon I arrived at Malta airport in the blazing sunshine. At the airport we were welcomed by a lady selling bus tickets for hotel transfer, very convenient. The bus took me to my hotel, the Alfonso in St Julian's. After settling in, I went to the Ta'Kris restaurant to meet two other course participants there, Marit from Norway and Johanna with her husband from Iceland. It was a very nice start to my Malta experience! There Marit showed us pictures from her bicycle trip on Gozo. So I had the idea to go to Gozo on Sunday, but not by bike, it's far too hot for long cycling trips for me. I took the hop on hop off sightseeing bus and had a great time on Gozo! You can find plenty of pictures here.
In the evening we had our first informal meeting, dinner at the Bayview Terrace of the Corinthia Marina. Good food again, and good company!
On Monday lessons started for real, fortunately in well-climatised computer labs. We learned about how to create quizzes with Powerpoint, how to create a panorama with Photosynth and how to make a Prezi presentation (more about the course contents here). And in the afternoon we had our first excursion to prehistoric temples, the Blue Grotto and Mdina.
On Tuesday lessions (digitl story telling, eTwinning, hotpotatoes & comic stories) were until 4 pm, after that I went back to the hotel to upload some photos. Later I met with some very nice course participants on the beach, and in the evening we had dinner together in a nice little restaurant. They served fresh fish and rabbit, and the local beer, Cisk.
