There are many ways to set up a blog and several different blogging sites. We will use two today. Blogger (www.blogger.com) and Tumblr (www.tumblr.com)
Why Use a Blog in Your Classroom?
Classroom management: Use a blog to post assignments, handouts, and notices. You can also put up study notes and have students take turns summarizing what happened in school that day.
Learning journal:small-group blogs as a place for students to "write reflectively" on what they learned from a particular assignment and how they might do better next time.
Online notebook: Limiting access to teacher and individual students only, you can use the blog as a way to track students' progress.
Class discussion: Assign blogs to small groups, or set up a single blog for each discussion topic.
