In this blog post I will be discussing the use of blogging in (K-12) classrooms. I searched the web and found countless blog posts. These are a couple I found to be interesting. I hope you enjoy them as well.
The first blog is Mrs. Namara's Class Blog (http://mrsmcsclass.blogspot.com). In this blog teacher Teresa McNamara shares information about her classroom and students and how they interact with blogging. She is a fifth year teacher residing in Queensland, Australia. She essentially uses the blog to keep track of her achievements and to allow students to express their involvement. She also interacts with other blogs and websites.
The second blog (http://mrsd.tblog.com) involves a second grade teacher named Ms. Dudiak. Ms. Dudiak has designed a blog for her reading class students in Maryland. The blog focuses on the students writing activities as well as her response. She explains to the students what a blog is and exactly how it will aid them. The blog also allows Ms. Dudiak to keep contact with students even when the school year is complete. The students seem to interact with the blog posts with much enthusiasm.
In closing, both of these blogs are great examples of technology aiding in the classroom. Sharing information via the Internet has just put its feet in the water. In the near future I'm sure we will all be amazed and asking " What's Next?''
