Blogging within the classroom

Submitted by Jenny (not verified) on January 28, 2008 - 15:42.

During a staff meeting this year, a social studies teacher talked about how great blogging is and how he is using it in his classroom. I had no clue what he was talking about or how blogging could help my students as I didn't even know blogging existed. This teacher set up a blog with his various classes for reviews before tests. He would post each individual question from a review and the students could go into the website and answer the review question or ask a fellow classmate about the question. This may be a little bit harder in math classes where writing mathematically takes some time; however, I am excited to give it a try after learning how beneficial and exciting this can be for my students.

Are there any math teachers out there that have done anything similar to this? Or does anyone else have an idea for incorporating technology into a math classroom?

Thank you in advance! Jenny
