Blogging Pedagogy and Benefits

Why consider blogging for your classroom?

 

 

 

 

 

  • Time in the classroom is limited.
  • Today's students spend hours on the internet.
  • Blogging fits hand in hand with constructivist learning (students learn best through doing and making their own meaning).
  • A weblog provides the student with the opportunity for publication.
  • Blogging is extremely valuable for editing and peer response.
  • Blogging provides a non-threatening venue for expression for those students who tend to be on the quieter, shy side.
