Lorelle WordPress School Tips and Techniques Badge. While this course started the first of February, it is a year-long course designed to go at your own speed. Just because a few people started from the beginning, you are welcome to join at any time.

You do not have to rush to catch up. As one of the participants explained, “you will be ahead of us because you will learn from our mistakes.”

When you complete an assignment, you may share the link from test site in the WordPress School Google+ Community post for that assignment. No matter how far along the others are, and everyone is moving at a different pace, they will be there to cheer you on and help you through the process, as will I.

Come join us by introducing yourself to the other participants and tell us why you are here. We love meeting new folks!

It is going to be a busy week.

In addition to the above assignments, you will be signing up to do a presentation in our WordPress School Google+ Community about a WordPress and WordPress.com feature. I’ve announced the structure and process of the special assignment on Google+, and the list from which you will choose your topic will be available by the end of the week. You will have two weeks from acceptance to submit your presentation on Google+. It’s going to be so much fun to see the creative ways participants will teach us all how to use WordPress.

The next week we will continue to work on the article series, learning even more about how to publish with WordPress, dive more into WordPress multimedia, and start to look at WordPress Theme customization.

Our WordPress School Google+ Community has become very active. Join us by by responding to the assignment posts rather than starting your own thread on the assignment discussion. This keeps the discussions together so we can learn from each other as we work on each assignment.
