My Teacher's Guide to Blogging

Blogs are increasingly popular source of information and communication tool for teachers to communicate with staff and students. Said another way, I enjoy reading about blogs. I think you will too. Just read it... "Blog Matters!"

Blog Matters

     As the number of media resources grew, I began to find new ways to serve that segment of our school department by starting our series on blogging placing them in my blog (thus blogging on the blog!).

     In my notes, I list the blogs I find useful professionally, give tips for  finding blogs  as well as keeping up with them once you find them. Next, I describe the joys of blogging to help readers get started and give ideas for what to focus on and how to keep the ball rolling. One of the really exiting things about blogs is that you can get nearly instant feedback on issues you need help with, and you can quickly share new techniques as well. Also, you have complete control over the finished product, and you can get published immediately crafting effective school material. Say you need an advice on to handle a particular problem with a pupil. You can post that on your blog and have advice from your colleges, educators, or just friends withing a several days.
