Why should or should not classroom teachers consider blogs as a tool to support their teaching? What exactly can blogs do to improve student learning?

Classroom teachers should consider blogs as a tool to support their teaching because students and parents can respond to the teachers' comments related to classroom agendas and homework assignments. Teachers can post daily homework assignments for the students who miss school days. Moreover, parents can check the blogs to know what their children need to do for homework. Teachers can post lesson plans or strategies for the parents to help their children. Also, parents can post comments or ask questions to the teachers. These ways blogs can support to improve student learning.

Write about anything that may be related or unrelated to the course (e.g., your hobbies, teaching in general, or teaching in your content area).

My hobbies are ice skating, biking, and spending time with my family members. I have not gone to ice skating recently because I have problems with my left foot. I just got a new bike. I like to spend time with my sister and brother because they know how to make me feel happy even when I am sad.

Hi everyone,

Discuss some ideas generated by this course on integrating technology into your teaching/content area.

This course taught me how to integrate different technological assignments into my teaching. For example, students can create their own digital story to share with the class. Another useful tool is creating a WebQuest to teach the class about a science project. Also, students can create power point presentations to present projects.

Hi everyone,

What is plagarism?

Pecorari defines plagarism a common concept in the English-speaking academic community that it may seem unnecessary to explain what plagiarism is or tht it is condidered to be a bad thing. Some students copy withourt any intention of plagiarising becasue they do not know to change the words or what to include.

A Cognitive moseling Approach to Teaching Critique Writing to nonnative Spekers

I liked the three-stages approach to teaching critique writing because studnets realize the importance of unederstanding disciplinary knowledge and being able to apply that knowledge to writing.

We are going to finish this quarter in three weeks and I am excited about that because of not taking any summer school class. I am happy that I took three classes during this quarter.

Hi guys,

I have been feeling a little sick after the fire on the Hollywood Hills because I had to pass by the hills to get to school from work. I almost gave up on driving because I could not see and my eyes were hurting and itching. I could also see the fire flames from my apartment and the smell of the smoke bothered me at night. Finally, it over.
Thanks,
