What and how do you think blogs would be useful for education? it is useful for education becuase students and teachers and quickly communicate and relay info from one another.
Some people think using blogs in classrooms is a waste of students’ time. How would you respond? Its not a waste of time if you are able to monitor the students actions and make sure that they are staying on task and using the blog in the way that you want them to.
What are some ways that you could use he technology ideas in Chapter 6 to support your curriculum and student learners? You can post assignments online and have students post their responses on the blogs and you can quickly grade and get their work.
I could not agree with you more about the quick relay of information and the convenience that blogging would provide for grading. I think another useful way to use blogs in the classroom is to help students that would normally not include themselves. Some people are just too shy to raise their hands and participate.
ReplyDeleteI also agree that the fast relay of information would be very beneficial to both the student and the instructor. It allows the teacher to organize information and get the assignments graded in a timely manor and when students get feedback on their work it helps them improve their future work. Blogging also lets the student get a hold of the teacher or other classmates outside of school hours if they have a problem with an assignment.

I love the idea of posting assignments and also and also their grades. That way there isn't any confusion about their progress in class.
