Week 1 - Blog Writing Prompt


Each week you will be posting a minimum of one entry to your blog. In class we will give you a writing prompt that will be the focus of your entry for that week. Please feel free to write as many entries as you wish, add pictures and links, etc. but the graded entry will be the one entry from the writing prompt.

Week 1 Writing Prompt:

This week we are discussing the use of educational blogs - some from teachers, others by students, and still some from classes. Please explore various educational blogs through this educational blogger wiki. The list contains hundreds of educational blog divided into categories.

After you have visited some of the educational blogs I would like you to pick out three and write a short review (a paragraph for each one you choose) to be placed in your graded blog entry for the week. The review could include ideas about you could use a similar blog in your class, things that might have worried you about the blog or anything that comes to mind as you read it. Please include the link to blogs you are reviewing in the text of your entry.

The blog entry needs to be posted by midnight - March 26th.
