This network is an academic blogging resource for Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly known as Ryerson University).

This site is intended to provide the university’s teaching and learning community with an alternative to the static website method of content delivery. Blogs can be used to enhance classroom communication and writing skills, and can be a great tool for project planning and scaffolding activities.

Please see the contents of this site for details on how to get set up, how to use the system and what it means to “blog”.

If you have any questions or concerns, please submit an inquiry to the online form found on the Contact Us page.
