So, it's nice to see that I have followers--albeit you're required to follow me! The same goes for the comments on my posts. I do appreciate the feedback, required or not--don't get me wrong. It fosters communication and provides me with some helpful feedback. Furthermore, commenting on other blogs gets me in the mood to read more. I've begun to follow truly insightful blogs about 21st century literacy, which I don't know that I would have done had this not been an assignment for a class.
That being said, I'm grateful for this blogging assignment. It's connecting me to the educational world outside of my own school building, and it's making me a better teacher. I might even start blogging for social purposes, or to polish my writing skills.
Anyway, here are some links to comments I made on other posts. Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteI am glad you were "required" to blog and that it has opened you up to it. That is how i became involved in blogging as well (for a class.) I was especially happy to read that you are ready to get your students involved to! TAfter I began blogging, I found so many useful education blogs that led me to links on how to incorporate 21st century skills. It really opened my eyes and let me discuss my fears and success with other educators!
