I am an eighth grade Language Arts teacher at Ormond Beach Middle School. Currently, for my third Master's class at Walden University I had to create my first blog site for the class. I hope to use this blog as a way to grow professionally in the classroom. I also hope to use this with my students in the future. In the high schools, I have heard of teachers using this as a way to do breaking the ice activities. I have also heard of teachers using this as a way to expand class discussion beyond the classroom walls. I look forward to seeing how this blogging will help me with my teaching skills in and out of the classroom.

I was just wondering about how I would use blogging with my students. Usually, I just use my virtual classroom to have student discussions. The only problem with that is you tend to get those students who like to talk monopolizing the discussion. So, I suppose I could use blogging to make sure that everyone gets a chance to voice their ideas. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteBlogging will be a good way of using virtual classroom. It may also help if rules to guide the nature, time, and frequency of posting are set before the blogging starts.
