How to Write Internet Classroom Posts

Witing and reading posts is part of an online learning environment.

Online learning is becoming big business. Long-standing colleges and universities as well as new exclusively online schools are learning that many people enjoy and benefit from the flexibility of online learning. Part of the way that learning in an Internet classroom works is that communication through chats and posts is encouraged. For teachers, this means thinking a bit differently, but making these kinds of posts is very simple.

Things You'll Need

• Word processing software

Instructions

1. Write your post in a word processing program first. This will give you the ability to read, format and reread your post easily. This will also allow you to use tools such as spell-check that may not be part of the posting system.

2. Go to your Internet classroom and click on the comments or posting section. You will probably have to login with a username and password. Click on the option to make a new post.

3. Open the document you created in your word processing program. Highlight or select all of the text. Right click on the text and choose "copy." Click in the post area, right click and choose "Paste." If the paste command isn't available, hold down the ctrl and v key to paste the text. Click on "post" or "send" to post the item.
