Week 2 Assignment

I think that blogs can be a very useful tool for a lot of professions. As far as education is concerned I think that it is highly beneficial. Parents can keep track of what their child is doing in class instead of asking them everyday when they come home from school. I know the response that I use to give my parents when they asked me "how was school today" and "what did you learn in school today". I would always respond with "school was fine" and "oh nothing". It would have been beneficial to my parents since I as a child did not communicate with them what was going on inside the classroom. I am now convinced that this is a great idea and the best way to communicate what you are teaching in the classroom. That being said, I would tell anyone who said that using blogs is a waste of time that for me it is a necessary communication tool. The more communication we have between the students, parents, and teachers can't be a bad thing. I only see it as being positive for everyone involved.

  1. I agree that blogging is a very useful tool in the education system. It can be a great means of communicating other than email for students within the class. Dustin Cope
