Week 2 assignment (continued)

I think that blogs can be a resourcefull way to share information. it gives the user the chance to "surf" the internet and become better equiped of their programs. In an educational setting, i think if used properly, a blog can be extrememly informative and fun. tutoring would obviously have to be involoved but once the students get the hang of using any server and the teacher frequantly uses it, then i am positive the students will be interested. Like facebook or myspace, the students should use a blog to communicate ideas and theories to other classmates via the computer. I believe it will be a great way to educated kids and keep them learning outside the classroom as well as in.
however, i do believe that if not utilized properly, a blog can be considered a nusence by students who will eventually give up using the resource. it has to be made fun and informative in some way. they need to consider it as a way of expressing feeling, opinions, and ideas without the fear of a grade.
