Think about blogs you've participated in or like to read regularly. What is it about these blogs that you find interesting/engaging/informative? Then, think about how you might use a blog as a teacher and as a preservice teacher in the Benedum Collaborative Five-Year Teacher Education Program. In your first posting, describe how you envision a blog supporting your experiences. What kinds of things can you imagine writing about? Please include as many possibilities as you can.
The have used two blog type programs. One is Facebook and the other is a blog that my cross country and track coach have set up for us. I like using Facebook for keeping in touch in my friends that have gone to college out of state. Using Facebook allows us to talk to each other. The blog for our cross country team is mostly used for our schedule and keeping us up to date on our workouts and trips. I like using these blogs for keep up with my schedule.
I could use a blog as a teacher and as a preservice techer in the Bendedum Collarboratie Five-Year Teacher Education Program by posting what I have done in my classes and what issues I might have come across. Hopefully people reading my blog would have advice on what I should do. I can also use it to read other people's blogs and see what they have been doing in their schools.
Things I can imagine writing about would be my experinence in the classroom, activites I did with my class, my wonderings, and to ask questions to people who are reading my blog. If I write about the activites I did with my class this could give other teachers ideas for teaching their lessons. Also, if I keep track of my wonderings and the other questions I have just in general about teaching, then other teachers can comment on them and give me advice. I can also give others advice as well.
I like that we can use this as a tool to help each other out when we come across a problem in our PDS classroom.
ReplyDeleteI plan on watching for what my students are doing in the classroom and how well they participate. I will also be watching for how well the students interact with each other when doing group activities.
