Sample Blog Prompts

Some example prompts to guide you... (These are NOT mandatory!)

There are all different types of blogs out there... Educational, personal, professional, academic, entertainment, etc. The Richardson (2010) text discusses various sorts of educational uses for blogs... Take a look at various blogs on the Internet. Does the idea of blogging for the classroom interest you at all? Could you see yourself using it with your students, or would you prefer just creating one for your own use?

Find yourself questioning what a wiki is in comparison with a blog? Check out the 4th chapter of your Richardson (2010) text. Feel free to reflect on what you'd prefer in the classroom, or what you think would work best for yourself and the grade level at which you teach.

Can you think of ways you'd integrate a wiki or blog into the classroom? List 'em!

Enjoyed learning about some new technology you discovered in this course? Talk about it!

Screencasting, Podcasting, Flickr, oh my! So many awesome things you may not have been exposed to prior to this course... Rant about some of the troubles you had with learning all these new digital formats for expression!

Tried something new in class? Didn't go well? Went even better than expected? Share!
