Instructions:
Each NSW DET staff member is responsible for adding their own page and keeping it up to date. Please do not edit other people's pages unless requested to by those staff.

To start, click New Page on the left and fill in the form - eg:

So your page name should be YOUR NAME in lower case, without spaces. Make sure the template staffdescription is selected. In the Add Tags box (all separated by commas), type in your first name, your last name, then the keywords that are representative of your on-line life - eg. blog, twitter, facebook, flickr, delicious, diigo, skype and so on - basically all those on-line tools you use and where you have a profile. Also in the tags, if your sites deal with a particular subject title or matter, add those as tags - eg. maths, science, literacy, K-6 etc.

Then click Create and you'll see the template you need to fill in, which is pretty self-explanatory.

If there are descriptors in the template that you don't use, delete them. If there are other you do use that aren't listed, add them in with a similar format - eg. TeacherTube, SlideShare etc.

In the end, your page is your own to manage and to setup as you like.

And remember, every profile page has its own discussion page which you can use to discuss things with visitors to your profile page. You may want to add a note to invite people to comment or ask questions via the Discussion page.
