1. Upon reading the articles, I was excited how many educators are participating in blog sites and sharing their knowledge. I was also excited to see how many opportunities there are for educators around the globe to communicate and collaborate on ideas. Next, it was refreshing to see that so many educators had the capabilities to engage in technology! I liked that the sites were often specific to a subject. The history blog was directed more at history teachers, however, I think an elementary educator could gain a lot of content knowledge through conversing with educators who had their content degree in history. The answers.com blog was a great blog for a variety of subjects. I liked that the single site could access you to a variety of blogs and a variety of topics. Next, I loved the idea of a high school blog site! I can see how some students may use it to write mean things, but I think it can be used in a great way! How great would it be to have a class blog site?
