Blogging So Far

This is the first time I have ever used a blog, and so far I really like the experience. I think this is a very unique way to have conversations about topics that are discussed in class, as well as issues that we didn't have time to cover. Often I find it difficult to say everything that I had thought about a particular book or article, and the blog allows me to share these thoughts and reflect on ideas that were brought up during class that I had not thought about on my own. I am glad that I have this opportunity to become familiar with blogging and I think it would be great to incorporate blogs in my future classroom. I think using a blog like this would be beneficial for a teacher to have as a means of keeping in touch with parents. The teacher can post upcoming events, homework assignments, and general information on a blog and it can be much easier than sending notes home with students.

So far, so good!
