Teddy Bears Go Blogging - Have you?

I love the fact that 2nd graders are blogging! It seems to be a wonderful collaborative tool which can appeal to different learning styles as well as the interest that students often have in computers and technology. The article also stressed the idea that blogging was not about the technology but about the fostering of communication.

I have read and posted to blogs for information technology such as CIO magazine but have never set one up for myself. I have found that blogs do promote the dissemination of information and spontaneous collaboration in a way that is much easier to manage than email or via phone. The advances in technology have allowed us to extend work outside of the office. We should be also exploring how to use the same tools to extend the boundaries of school and expand the learning community. (Post 3)
