Blogging

I had a great time setting up my blog. There are a lot of things that you can tweak if you want. I thought it was nice too that they offered a lot of templates... if you want to be up and running in 5 minutes that is possible too. I got all caught up in playing with the font colors and pictures. I explored the settings and then decided to create a Voki. I have been having the hardest time inputing the code so that it comes out in the sidebar. I finally got it to show up but in the middle and I have a feeling after I publish this post it will be somewhere else. Oh well, I will have to play with it later. So far I have enjoyed the experience and look forward to chronicling everything I learn in this class on my blog.
I am thinking of the different ways I could use blogging at work. I think it would be a great way to keep teachers and students informed of the resources available and of what's new. Blogs could also be used for different types of assignments. I am curious how many teachers in my building are using blogs in their teaching...
