Just like email, I can see using the blog for a whole host of possibilities. These do include those from the list: showing student work, peer assistance, teacher guidance and instant news feeds, but there are surely others that I have not yet found. In the beginning, I will start with the survey, chat, class assignments and so on. Once I have developed a bit more experience with blogs, we will move into video streaming, chatting and as many other features as are out there by that point.

Using a blog can make such a huge difference in the classroom. Just as chats, emails and websites have in the past. In teaching 2nd to 8th graders about technology, it is important to expose them to as much as possible. They need to develop proficiency in basic systems, but also be aware of more advanced systems.

Hello,

There were only 2 votes on the past survey and they lead to brand and extras being the deciding factor when it came to computer purchasing. In the new survey, we will be looking at the favorite teacher resource: EdHelper, Teacher Vision, Gaggle.Net, Teacher Created Material or other. Please take the time to vote and encourage others you to make a quick stop by and vote.

Welcome

Hello Classmates,

I have been part of one of these blogs for quite a while, but have not had much of a reason to use it until now. Hopefully, we can share quite a few great ideas on this thing.

I have been a technology teacher for the past 9 years. My school is in the urban part of Chicago. The students are truly amazing at how well they can pick up technology when they just try.

I have plenty to share, but for now, just saying hello. Have a GREAT time here at Walden and hopefully we can truly grow in technology use.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Steven M. Ohren
