Digital Media Class #1
This week, besides the whole getting to know the class stuff, we explored blogs. There were some nice search tools to help us to find blogs that may be interesting to us as well as looking at different weblog sits that could be useful to us in class. I find that most of the time, I think that there is not much that I can do with third graders and some of this technology, but once I research and look at different ideas and examples, I always seem to come up with at least one thing that I could use. I have to remember, I don't always have to be thinking about just the kids in my class. A great way that I could use a blog would be to use it as a resource of other teachers in the building. I feel like I am learning so much through the program and learning about so many resources that a blog would be a great way to communicate with other teachers not only in my grade level, but across grade levels and throughout the district. I always seem to have people asking for advice and a blog would be a great resource to refer them to.

I agree Lisa. There are so many things to learn from the Internet and search blogs are a great resource. With the search engines, we are able to search for specific content and using a managing system we are able to use RSS feeds to keep our blogs all in one location and view the most current information. I'm interested to see where this class takes us.
I feel the same way. I don't find much for Spanish, but once I really look into it, there is always something that I can use with my students. It just takes a little more time to find it sometimes!
