Blogging in the Classroom: Step One
Filed Under Blogging in and out of the Classroom, Computers In The Classroom, Teacher Support
I’ve taken the first step. I’ve set up a class blog using edublogs.org. Actually that’s the second step, now that I think about it. The first step was to decide to have a classroom blog. I wanted a multiuser blog that was private. When I set up this blog, I checked the little box asking me if I wanted my blog to be private. I hope private means what I want it to . I guess I’ll soon see. Dustin, I hope I don’t have to apologize later. I’ll experiment a bit to find out what’s what with this blog. My learning curve has been pretty steep, and I think (think, I know)I’ve got a way to go yet. Doug’s classroom blog has given me some ideas about how to set my own up blog. It’s always great to have an exemplar! After I figure out what I’m doing, I’m going to develop my student policy for blogging. Ewan kindly shared the blogging policy that the East Lothian Council has adopted. It’s a good starting point. For that matter, it could be a good ending point as well. It seems reasonable.
Just look at all the help and encouragement I’ve gotten. I know that I wouldn’t be doing this (Heck, I wouldn’t even be thinking about doing this) if it wasn’t for all this support. Thank you. Now Lisa, I might need more of IT support.
