Blogging in the Classroom


This post present some ways to blog with your students. In my school we have used Blogger, because it is so easy to create. In 10 minutes students are ready to post for the first time.
In my opinion there are many benefits blogging in school. Students work and skils become visible, students gets feedback from classmates and also other maybe international schools and also learn to give open good ctitics for each other, student can use mobile for images, shoot their own videos or embed videos from Youtube - so there are many good reasons to start blogging in the classroom.

First video is great tutorial how to create easy and quick Blogger blog. In Livebinders link end of this post there are other blogs like Wordpress and Kidblog. Slideshare presentations give good reasons and ideas to blog in classroom and blog resources links fulfill your hunger of information. There are more than you need to start blogging with your students.
