Blogger strikes again! I have used this blog site for many types of assignments before and also for personal use. I enjoy using this site, it is very easy to use and the layout and set up is very easy to access and use.
In undergrad we were to use blogger t write reflections and respond to current events. At times we were asked to write creative things like what is on our mind. Here we got to see what our peers are thinking and how they go about expressing themselves.
I believe blogs are excellent tools for education. These type of tools help enhance information and computer literacy. Students learn how t organize their thoughts into writing. They can find ways to creatively speak about a topic. I would most defintly use blogs in my classroom. I hope to one day become a history teacher and I would use blogs as a online journal.
I am glad at least we have someone that is used to using blogs because now I know who I am going to go to when I have questions about this!
ReplyDeleteMelanie, and Jasmine,
ReplyDeleteHow are you enjoying using a blog? I feel like it is a diary for me...I would start off well but never remember to keep going. I don't think this is for me. However have you seen these teacher blogs? They are AMAZING!
