Our school has been using blogs for the past two years. The majority of students are confident in blogging and many enjoy using this platform to get their views out there. Using blogs, the students can practise their comprehension and writing skills, while learning about copyright and more importantly, cyber safety.
I also opened a Twitter account, but as yet haven't posted a comment, or is that 'tweeted'. I now understand what and how hash tags work. I'm not convinced that using Twitter, with its 140 character limit, would work in a classroom.

Well done Michelle. I'm sure the students will benefit from you knowledge after the Web 2.0 - not to mention the teachers!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kerri. Just wondering whether you received my practise Google Docs on 'Quotes'?
