When I initially registered for this class (and even until the very first class) I thought that I would benefit very little by spending three hours in a class where I already knew EVERYTHING. I was dead wrong! In the short amount of time that we have spent in class I have learned so much....I wish I had discovered Inspiration a year ago. And who knew about Diigo and Del.ici.ous? Not only have I began using this knowledge...but let us all not forget to pass it along to others.

First Entry

A blog is similar to an electronic journal. Blogs are or can be used as primary sources of information for some and for disseminating information to others. They can be used for print media, pictures, videos, and an assortment of different media. Blogs can also be used for Op-ed purposes as well. Blogs can be used by anyone and many sites such as blogger.com offer free weblog accounts.
Blogs can be used in the classroom to communicate with students and parents regarding school activities and homework. Students may share reflections regarding classwork, assignments, world events. and may also be used for communication between students for debates, and the like. Blogs can also be an effective tool for journaling and staying abreast of world news.
