Welcome to the new home for IPRA’s Therapeutic Recreation Section professionals! As you’ll soon find out, this new blog (read: interactive Web site) will allow for so much more learning and interaction among members than the old static TR page.With this new site, you as the TR members, have the ability to become Contributors and post your own questions, news, learning experiences, meeting updates, workshop reminders, etc. You no longer have to wait for IPRA staff to update little nuggets of information - the power is in your hands!Once you’ve published a post others in the section have the ability to comment on them and provide feedback. This begins the interaction and learning. Think of this blog as the TR ListServ on steroids! Same great concept but now every post will be archived by category for later reference. You also don’t have to worry about email addresses - and bad emails too.
The success of the TR Section blog is really up to you, the member. If nothing ever gets posted and no one ever comments it’ll become a static page like the one you’re used to. Take control of your TR communications and get the word out.
To get started as a Contributor, simply click on the Login link at the top of the page…click on Register…enter a Username you’d like to use and you’re email address…and a password will be sent to you automatically. Now you can Login with your information and begin writing and publishing your thoughts. Easy huh?
We’re hear to help so let us know if you’re having any issues. Have fun!
FYI: It might take awhile for your password to be emailed to you. Or at least mine is taking forever. No worries though, it will be worth it in the end.
Is anyone elses words all on top of eachother and such?
Theresa,
How long is taking you to get your password to login to the blog? Also, can you be more specific in terms of how the words are on top of each other? Please let me know.
Thanks,
