Posting and sharing

I read the blog several times a week and post what some would consider to be short responses, but generative posts are a little harder for me. I'm learning more about how I view what I do, and it's odd that  I think about things a lot but don't talk that much about them. It gives me pause that I think so much but don't feel confident enough to share. . . everyone else in the room seems so much more accomplished than me. Baring my soul here a bit, but it's supposed to be good for you.

Join, Follow, Introductions

Hello and welcome to the adult literacy @ VCU blog!  This is a space to connect with colleagues, share ideas, seek feedback, or simply say hello.  It's whatever we want it to be.  Unlike a typical blog, all followers of this blog will have full author privileges.  This means all blog members can  start new conversations (posts) as well as comment on each others' postings.  In this way, our blog is a co-op that belongs to all.  Has anyone tried this before? You'll have to post and tell us about your experience.

In order to get started, please take a moment to "join" (in the right margin).  Once you join, we will upgrade you to blog "author" and you can begin posting.  You will need a google account to participate, and a thumbnail pic is always a nice way to add to your blogger profile. 

To stay connected, you can "follow by email" (in the right margin).  When you follow, you will receive a daily email when there is blog activity.  The email will contain a link that brings you right back here to read and post. It's very convenient.


Thanks so much for taking the time to join and follow!  You will hear from us shortly.  In the meantime, please comment to this post and introduce yourself to the group.

A little about me...

Hi Everyone!
My name is "JG_ADLT" :). I am new to the ADLT program - currently in my third class and so far loving every moment of my journey...
I've lived in Europe for a total of seven and a 1/2 years off and on and felt more "at home" there; although I love my country.
I am an avid reader and cyclist - either stationery or open road. I hope to buy a place in Italy when I retire and be drunk on it's beauty!
