Blogging in a essential tool for can help in the teaching process. I can use with my elementary school students, teachers, and even the parents. It gives me a oppurnity to reach out to the students and allow then to interact with each other.This can help by eliminating some of the paper work in group projects. For example, during the research part of the project, the students can blog the information that they found to each other. Also creating a group blog at the final project could make a interesting project as well. It is something different from the traditional power points and poster boards. Creating a class blog also help let the parents know what is going on anything of the day. For example, putting up a weekly schedulce allows the parents to know what their child is doing fthrough the week. It can also be helpful with the making of appointments for doctors and dentists. It would also be a place for link for the parents to look at the students work on things like past projects. Blogging for the teachers in schools is also very helpful. It could allow the teachers to trade ideas and give informaiton about what is going on in each other's class room. For example, if a particular teacher has a new exciting way to learn addition, she can blog about it. This is helpful because then more teachers would be able to use the new teaching tool.
Blogging is something that must people do on many different popular webiste. The thing is aomw people do not relaize they are doing it. The website, http://davidwarlick.com/2cents/, talks about the same thing. Blogging is helpful, it lets students express themselves in a different way. It takes allowing the students to talk about what is going on in their lives to having a particular place to lay out all their taughts.
