What do I think about Blogging?....

It's been about 3 wks since we have been taking microcomputing systems and so far, everything has been going great. Besides working on our presentations and now our trifold brochure, the entire class has been posting blogs and commenting on each other on a daily basis. Now that everyone has started to get the hang of it, it is a great tool!! Even though it has been only 3 weeks that the class has been posting and commenting blogs, I have been doing it for quite a while now. It is somewhat different, but I believe Facebook has become very popular with posting blogs and commenting you'r friends. Yes, it is exactly the same as what the we are doing with blogging, but it has the same aspect. Another website that students, especially myself like to do, is post blogs on Myspace. Myspace is alos another great way to keep in touch with their peers and to say what is on their mind.
When it comes to posting blogs, I believe it will benifit the K-12 classrooms. It is a great way to start off the day and to tell what is on the students mind even, especially if it is not such a great blog. I don't know if the kindegarden and first grade classrooms would benefit from it so much, but I know that the 2nd to highschoolers would. The negative side about blogging is that if the teacher does not limit their time on the computer, some children will want to always stay on to post blogs and will probably never want to do anything else because the computer will always be on their mind. On the other hand, as for the positive side of blogging, it is a great way to have the students communicate with their peers.
