I've been doing more and more research on the power of blogging in the classroom. Blogs allow students and teachers to continue to connect beyond the school day. More importantly, they allow students to have their own voice. There are so many applications of blogging for all subject areas. I will add suggestions for content areas on each page, but below are some general resources to consider. Some teachers are using blogs regularly....it would be great to hear how you are incorporating them in your classes!
