Thing 3 ~ Blogs in Education

I have dreaded writing this reflection because I have had so much to say. In an effort to strike a balance between sharing actively and over-actively sharing, I will include only one to two comments from each link. (If anyone is interested in more, please contact me.)

James Logan Courier - high school student journalism
I like how they included comics and editorial cartoons. I also liked how most postings started with a quote and seemed to be a part of a theme.

Caleigh’s Corner attracted me because of how close her name was to my baby girl’s. I had a tough time reading through those blogs and the blogs that are linked to it. I have never been to Holland.

Bud the Teacher - about teaching
I’m not a fan.

G-Town Talks - from a superintendent of schools
I can picture Jason doing one of these types of blogs. His Happy Friday messages would be an even bigger hit with the subscribing community than they are with his faculty and staff.

ETLMS - from Oakland Schools
Wahoo! The very 1st post and link led me to a cool site that I can use for the American Revolution.

This Week in Education - by journalist and former Senate education staffer
I like one stop shopping, and this seems to be a good site for me. Many of his links also connect to concepts from my Canter classes. I may also subscribe to http://www.tipline.blogspot.com/...like.

Where do I even start?

  1. Why not a fan of Bud the teacher?

  2. I think it was because it seemed so long and text heavy. I didn't know where to start and was not inspired to navigate aimlessly. I just checked the link again so that I could answer your question with more detail. A few headlines caught my attention, but I am still weary.
