Signing up to Goodreads for English Class (you must be 13+).

  • Go to Goodreads
  • Create an account. Please use your school email address (ABC0001@footscray.vic.edu.au) and password.
  • Don't connect your account to social media... you will not be able to use it at school as social media is blocked. You may like to do this step from home later.

  • If the red netspace screen pops up, don't worry, try using the back and forward buttons. As the site has plugins to sites such as twitter and facebook our net security can sometimes get confused and block the whole page instead of the specific social media widgets.

  • Now you can select your favourite genres and rate books you've read. Once you have added at least 20 books to your list Goodreads will recommend new books to you based on what you like.

  • Once you have set up an account please go to the "Edit profile" page and click on the "widgets" tab.

  • A widget is a small window embedded into a webpage or blog from another site. You can customise a widget to display specific information you want to share.
  • For our purposes today please only customise the title (nothing rude) and the colour codes.
  • Once you are happy with it save changes and copy the entire code to the clipboard - use Ctrl+A and Ctrl+C to do this.
