Blogging seems to be a fun way for students to express what they are learning by using technology. Also it seems like a way to get parents involve in students learning. The article did justify some concerns I would have as a teacher with copyright laws and privacy for the students. Many schools would have to rule or procedures in place for blogging especially with what is appropriate and inappropriate to write. Blogging is definitely something I would like to try to incorporate in my classroom.
After reading November article “Creating a new culture of teaching and learning “section one stood out to me. It’s important when having students using the Internet for research that they know how to find quality information on the Internet because everything you read on the Internet is not always true. As a future educator, I would have to show students how to validate the information they find on the Internet. This article provided a great example that teachers could share with their students before giving them a research project involving the Internet.
I expect to learning more about technology in education. Technology is ever changing and I’m excited every time I learn something new about it. The philosophy of education activities really opened my eyes to dig deep within myself about learning and teaching. This class will help me focus on why I decided to become a teacher and start the alternative certification program.
