Back To Blogs For A Sec
This past week we had our faculty meeting with one s member from the Superintendent's office to discuss any issues with upcoming school year. During her visit she had mentioned that her office was looking for ways to better serve their employees and keep the lines of communication open. I was amazed when she stated that many had mentioned the idea of setting up a blog. What was even more surprising was to see many agree with this idea. A month ago I barely knew what a blog was and had little interest in one for that matter. But I can see them becoming more and more popular forms of communication. It seems that it would make sense to have a blog for a purpose like this because I am sure they are fielding the same questions over and over on a daily basis about budget issues. This way they could post an answer for all to see! Not a sermon..just a thought (to quote Lon Soloman).

That's cool about the connection among the work place and our class. I imagine we will be more in-tune to blogs after this semester. I still struggle with the need to blog rather than just keep a webpage going. I understand the interaction aspect, however there's email.... I guess I haven't embraced this yet!
ReplyDeleteYou are so right! I think part of it may be once you are aware of some particular thing, you suddenly notice it everywhere.... Try naming a child an unusual name, and suddenly you here it everywhere you go.... I think blogging has been around even in the educational fields, but until we were aware of blogging, and really learned more about it, we sort of ignored its existence.. check out this site http://blogs.glnd.k12.va.us/teachers/
