Day One- January 19

Today, we set up a blog through gmail and I felt as if we met standard 3 (Model Digital-Age Work and Learning) benchmark B(collaborate with students, peers, parents, and community members using digital tools and resources to support student success and innovation)because a blog will help us collaborate with each other throughout this semester. It will also allow us to communicate with our peers and friends. A good example of this is the wordle activity that we engaged in. Everyone in the class sent a text message with two nouns and two adjectives that describe California. This was then sent to a classroom in California, and that classroom sent a message back with what they thought about West Virginia. That is a great example of collaborating with other students using digital media!

  1. This is a good explanation of how the activity met the standards you chose! How might you use blogging in your future classroom?

  2. I would have my students use blogging the exact same way we use it in the classroom everyday. I think that blogging is a great asset to communication amongst friends, students, teachers, peers, etc.
