Chapter 3

Upon review of the chapter I realized several very important things. If you want your students to actively participate in something that can truly enhance their learning, you must first provide a good example and lead by that example. It is becoming more prominent in many households ( including my own) to check email as frequently as you check your voice mail. If we can get students and parents to interact using weblogs as frequent as email, we will become more efficient and effect as a community. By using weblogs we are creating a new genre of text for students to read. This is a great way to connect, and if done properly safe and fun!

  2. Mary you are getting so tech-savvy. You have lots of little gadgets and information in your Blog. The pictures are great.

    I was just reading Erin's Blog and she made a point of saying that we need to make blogging a habit and I agree. Right now I am not as comfortable as I could be with posting. When I reread my posts, I have almost always misspelled something or forgot a word. If we are going to teach the students to write for a wider audience, we need to get comfortable with it as well.
