There are so many ways that I could use blogs during my teaching career. Blogs can be useful for my personal growth as a teacher, in my classroom, and for parents. If I used blogs during my career I could record many useful techniques that I find very helpful. I can get shared ideas form other teachers as well as tips and pointers. I can even see how I begin to grow in certain areas I wasn't so sure at in the beginning. I can learn more about education issues that I am concerned with and discuss them with other teachers.
My class could benefit from using blogs. I could post homework and discussion boards allowing students to comment about any assignment they are having trouble with. They can help their peers and share ideas about certain subjects they feel strongly in. If a student ever falls behind in my class, I can post assignments and teaching tools such as power points for he or she to review. Extra credit and class projects would also be simple to display on a blog type setting.
Parent and teacher communication is very important to a child's school education. Having a blog would allow me to keep in touch with parents and their concerns, issues, or ideas on improvement. They would be able to follow along with the due homework and keep track of what their student should be learning. I can post calenders with due dates so students and parents can always stay prepared. There are many ways I could incorporate a blog within the classroom and these are examples of just a few beneficial ways among many.
