The document describes using blogs for a "digital post-it note" reflection exercise. Students create a digital image of a post-it note by adding text to a downloaded post-it note image in an app. They then upload the annotated digital post-it note image to their blogs as a response to a reflection question. The students engaged well with the simple activity and learned how to incorporate an image into their blog posts.

“Digital Post It Note” Reflection/Plenary Using blogs for student reflection or plenary activities works really well. Students can write a short reflection on their learning or engage in a plenary activity. A simple example of this is a “digital post it note” reflection exercise that I have used with several of my classes now. Rather than handing out post it notes for a plenary exercise or starter (which I have done in the past) I asked my students to create a digital post-it note which answers the reflection question and post it to their blogs. For something so simple, the students were really into it and it didn’t take them long to figure out how to get a picture of a post it note and insert it into their blogs. Here is how to do it…
Click on the image of the Post it note you like. Save it to the Camera Roll 1. 2. HOW TO - STEP BY STEP… Go to google.co.nz and type in “post it note” into the search bar (images)
3. • Open up the post it note in Pic Collage, Keynote, Notablity, or any other app that allows you to: A) Put text on an image B) Save as an image • Write your reflection on the post it note and save it all as one image to camera roll or hard drive.
4. Go to their blog either via Wordpress.com or the Wordpress App. Create a New Blog Post (as usual) 5. Then insert the picture of their post it note into the post and publish.
