Blogs as Teaching Tools

Blogs can be a very useful tools to teachers in the classroom. Many teachers around the world use blogs to reach out to students as well as parents. Blogs are also a great way to display student work. For some parents, work schedules prevent them from visiting the school to see what kind of activities the students are taking part in. Blogs break this barrier by allowing parents to view photos and read updates from the teacher. Teachers can also incorporate blogs into everyday assignments. For example, english students can post short stories and comment on the work of their classmates. Blogs provide teachers with a resource that can allow students to show their creativity and also learn from their classmates.
