So I registered my blog last week but I'm just posting this Thing today because I had to go to the 23 Things page and look at every Thing and write down the instructions on a piece of paper which I now have in front of me. It is the only way I can keep track of what I'm supposed to do for each Thing!
As a student, I can use a blog to connect with classmates and perhaps discuss an assignment or an issue in the education program. If I can get comments from people who are currently teaching, they might be able to give me insight into how I will apply what I am currently learning in the classroom.
As a teacher, I could use a blog to communicate with parents and students (separate blogs). I could have a classroom blog where students could post relevant thoughts and ideas about subjects we are studying in class, ask questions about homework or even give each other tips on homework and study habits. I believe that sometimes students will emulate other students' study habits rather than take the advice of their teacher or parents.
I, too, had to create a list of the 23 Things in order to keep track of what I was doing and I am so glad to hear that I am not the only one! I find all this a little intimidating because I am not tech-savvy, but I am determined to overcome!
ReplyDeleteI love that you want to create a blog for the students to help each other with assignments so they can understand the lesson better. Great post!
