Blogging thus far...

First, I would like to say thanks to Deb for creating this because I can imagine that this was not an easy task. This is my first time blogging so I am still nervous about it even getting posted in the right location. I too, have a MySpace page and attempted to do a blog entry. I didn't know how to make my blog appealing like many of my friends, so I never tried to do it again. But I do see the real educational potential in blogging. Now that I have a better understanding about blogging, I would suggest my students to use them as diaries and bulletin boards. I would especially like for my students to use them as class journals, instead of the traditional method. Using a blog will also increase their computer skills and knowledge. Allowing students to use spanish in the different setting is a great for me to observe and critique their grammar skills.

I'm not a huge blogger either, but I do use it on myspace to keep my friends updated on what's going on. I think students would like to use it as a journal and I think that's a great idea. They'll probably be more involved in their journal with blogging as a fun thing to add to it.
