CEDU 534 - Week 1

This week we read the first three chapters in our text Blogs, Wikis, Podcasts, and Other Powerful Web Tools for Classrooms and the one idea that I most want to implement is a classroom blog in which students can post responses to my questions rather than each of them creating their own blog. I like this idea as a way to introduce my students to blogging. My current Basic Communications class is only five students, so the numbers of responses will be manageable. I surveyed my class and their knowledge and use of blogs is very limited, so I am excited to teach them something new.
