My Blog

My blog has been useful this semester for myself. It has been a great way to think and reflect on different areas of teaching and technology, while Dr. Strange was able to check in on us. I think blogs are very useful in education. Though I do wish there was a way you could set them to private and give user names and passwords to parents. With privacy being a rare commodity these things I think it is a must when it comes to protecting our children. Other than that I think it is a wonderful tool to keep parents updated with classroom happenings, to post pictures, and to allow the children to express themselves. I would like to use blogs as a forum for parents. I think it is an easy way to get feedback from parents. You can ask their opinions on field trips, activities, etc.
