Tech. Tuesday- Oct. 9

This week, I would like to highlight the blogs of two of our colleagues:  Ingrid Boyd & John Richardson.  In both cases, the blogs focus on the use of technologies in the classrooms (largely) and their perspectives are worth reading.  Secondly, I wanted to highlight these blogs as examples of how to use blogging in your classrooms.  Both of these blogs were created in response to expectations for university classes.  You could have your students write blogs as part of their summative evaluations, as a form of formative assessment, as a way of journaling their work for a larger project or as a form of online portfolio.  What other ways might you use blogging as a tool in your classes?
