Introduction

Intermediate (Thanks to Jerrie!)
I hope to learn more about blogs so that I can continue to help teachers implement blogging in the classroom to help teach writing skills as well as for communication and collaboration.

Introduction

Carol Moncus
Instructional Technology Specialist
Muscogee County School District

I pretty sure that you'd have to call me a novice blogger.

I haven't been reading any blogs on a regular basis. I just view some to learn more about the blogging process.

I hope to get some ideas for blogging topics and especially how to use them in classroom situations.

Introduction

Elizabeth Curry
Media Specialist Barber Middle School
Cobb County
At Barber Middle School all teachers post to a blog daily. The purpose of the blogging is to keep students and parents aware of assignments. It is not interactive. I think that the format is much easier to navigate than web site for parents, students and teachers. Also the fact that the posts are archived is helpful as well. I do not blog often from the media center because I have not decided with my job share person what should be included.
Personally, I read a few professional blogs. The GLMA, The Unquiet Librarian and one from a contributor to the ALA - Valenza. Also, as I stumble across some blogs of interest I will read them as well but not continually.
