Blogger (Module 2)




Blogging has a plethora of classroom uses and I can recommend "Blogger" as the most user friendly tool, particularly as it is integrated into the Google suite. This means students (and staff) with a Google account do not need to create a new username/password.

I believe blogging is essential in your classroom! It creates a genuine audience for student writing (therefore increases motivation), encourages collaboration, encourages a sense of class community and "commenting" encourages critical thinking and expressing of opinions. Wham...start blogging!
