    Okay, I'm officially ancient. I have finally found and got this link to work after a 3 day search. My address is above. Just in case, on our comment board under "blog" I have also posted this link a few days ago. Thanks. H

    Heather I sent you an email earlier this evening and this repeats some of it. I saw the URL in the comment area under the blog page. However, I was not sure if you were ready to show it. When I go to it at https://protected.personal.psu.edu/h/j/hjf110/blogs/heather/2011/01/1-public-pedagogy-meet-and-greet.html I get the message:

    "Authorization Required
    You do not have permission to access this page. In order to view this page, the page owner must grant you permission using the Access Control Manager."

    There is a support button that you can write a message about the problem such as the message above appears, and you will get a response how to change it. Here's my guidance: Login so that you have the blog editing, and then under preferences make sure the "comment settings are so "anyone" can comment

    Accept Comments
    If enabled, comments will be accepted.

    And decide on "Registration Settings"

    Options include:
    Allow Registration
    Authentication Methods

    Anonymous Comments

    Require E-mail Address for Anonymous Comments
    If enabled, visitors must provide a valid e-mail address when commenting.

    WebAccess

    Not to worry--try tomorrow after you finish teaching to set it so we can see what you posted.

    Option for a "protected" PSU blog so only the class can see.

    Hi Heather,

    Penn State blog can be set as protected, which is what you have done. Only a selected group of people can view it.

    When creating a Penn State blog, if you choose protected, which you must have done, after publishing the site, go to Manage--> Users. Then, select "Grant user permission to view this protected blog or see who already has access." Then follow the instructions to add each students in the class to the list (see Roster in ANGEL to add us). Under the "Access restriction Selection," select the first option (using Access Account userids, class lists, roles and/or groups), then select second option (using just Access Account userids.) on the next page. Then, you will be able to add individuals by typing in their Penn State ID. Here is the instruction page. http://aset.its.psu.edu/docs/acm_wizard/

    In addition, you can grant users to edit the blog under Manage--> Users.
    This is only a one time process. I don't see any functionality of blogging is disabled though.

    Or, you can have the PSU blog open so the public can see and then manage who can comment in this way.

    Go to "preferences" for the PSU blog and then "comment settings" and select

    Immediately approve comments from

     * No one
     * Trusted commenters only
     * Any authenticated commenters
     * Anyone

    Heather, for your information, I still can't get to the blog from the link you just posted. Did you give all of us access, or just Karen?

    1. Public Pedagogy Meet and Greet
    By HEATHER JOAN FRY on January 18, 2011 6:40 PM | 0 Comments | 0 TrackBacks
    When I try to locate a public sphere of influence, among the many, that may describe the person I am, I don't narrow it down to spaces such as TV, Internet, news, advertisements etc. Instead I'm pointed towards travel. I love to travel, I would go so far as to say I love even the transit of any route that takes me to the destination.
    There is something about other physical places, cultures, landscapes, smells, other than my own, that I've always found intriguing. Knowing that there isn't just one event, buildings, a few people, or a comfortable proximity of personal space that is different, but a whole everything.... and that is both entertaining and humbling.
    The places that take you in, expand your horizons, and teach you about yourself become what are better known as "sacred places". I remember while traveling alone in my younger years I never came to know myself better than I did then. There were such a collage of places that I involved myself in, rather than just have an outside view of or interface with. Whether it was the lure of the ancient art and old cities of Italy, the huts of Fiji, and the pleasant sound of Australia's slurred vowels, those places still resonate with me.
    I find that now in my early thirties, I view places I go slightly different. I don't think I view it so much as a tool to know myself while still learning about others, but how might I stretch what I've experienced (cultural beliefs, ways of doing, art practices or techniques) back to my classroom for my students to have their own experience...enough to ignite an excitement for them to want more. I travel now more through books, stories, and short field trips, but still try, even through that, to develop a motivation or capture enough special spaces for my students to desire to seek and find outside their TV shows, video games and "home-base".
