I have had some previous experience (but not too much) with blogging through two online courses I have completed. I found it a good, quick and convenient way to communicate with others in the same community of learning that I was in at the time. It was a great way to hear from people from around the country as well as overseas. This method of communication helped to enhance my studies.
In looking at blogging in this module it was interesting to see what had been set up and it gave me some ideas for how I might start to use this with the students I teach and also my colleagues. I teach in the HSIE KLA and also the Learning Support Department in my school. I can see how setting up a blog can greatly assist us as educators and also assist the students we teach. It is a great tool for students to be able to have access to information that for some reason they might of missed in the classroom. It could also be a good way to engage students in projects as they can look at information at home and reinforce the work that is being doen in the classroom.
I am looking forward to developing more ideas as I progress through this course.
