This is actually the first time I have ever used a blog before and so far I am enjoying it. I think using blogs is a very efficient way to share information. Blogs can be used in professional, personal or educational settings. Blogs allow people with common interests to share their ideas with each other and comment on other blogger’s thoughts on a certain subject. Blogs can be very useful in education because it allows students, teachers and even parents to share information and do online activities. I don’t think that using blogs in classrooms is a waste of time. I know from personal experience that speaking up in a classroom setting can be very intimidating. Having online discussions like these allow students to participate without feeling self conscious. Blogging can be fun and creative and students like that. Having a personal blog allows students to customize their page, add their classmates and share ideas with one another.
