I loved how easy this was to create. I could see this as a way to create a webquest for students or even have students create a blog of their own.
Check out www.planet-corcoran.blogspot.com. I learned how to add a photo to my post.

What a easy way to post work we are doing in class. Students can look up my blog and see what we did in class and I can post question on here for Homework. I could even make links for webquest.

ReplyDeleteI have a web page, but this might be easier to change and maintain. I think it is possible to have several different blogs, which would be useful, since I teach several different subjects.
I'll have to explore some more.
Are science and math teachers early technology adopters? :)

ReplyDeleteI loved how easy it was to make. I hope this can help my students saty informed on waht they need to be doing to help them get into college. I alos like the mobile feature. I know just about all my students have cell phones so we can stay in touch that way also. This is great. Can't wait for next session.
Ms. Regan,
ReplyDeleteI think i got it. had some difficulty with inserting an image. I see it as a great way to keep my students engaged. nice way ,when i learn to exhibit their art.

The URL of my blog is http://clarkesclassescorcoran.blogspot.com. Just wrote my first post, and it was very easy! I may use this to communicate with my classes and post assignments for home access. Hopefully I can get it set up the way I want before the end of the year!
ReplyDeleteThe URL of my blog is http://mssatalin.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteThis is great! Forget learning to creat a website - this is how I will set up my homework page for next year!
hey people look at me i'm blogging now! my URL is http://drumlinmania.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI tried to post a photo but couldn't get picture to open up. But I consider myself lucky that I even got the blog to work and publish. It would be great to have a blog that students could look at to see what they missed in class, homework assignments, important dates (ie tests), helpful hints, etc. oh BTW helenwheels is aka Ellen Tillapaugh

ReplyDeleteThis was a trippy journey into the past for me. I was a blogspot user from a decade ago, before Google acquired Blogger. I already had the above blog, as well as a whole bunch of others, established different times ranging from 2001 to 2006, all abandoned around then - at about that time, I'd gotten frustrated trying to coax students to come to visit my sites and gave into just creating pages where they were already: Facebook. Of course, there continue to be two flaws to that: there are some people not on Facebook, and the school district has policy ADD when it comes to who can access it and how. So, I figured I might as well refresh my memory on Blogger / Blogspot and give it a try again.
I also enjoyed the prompting that this training gave me to take a look at some of the Google tools I hadn't tried before. I was already a daily user of the image search (truly vital in desktop publishing) and recently started using Google Calendar when I got my iPhone and needed to switch to something compatible, but I was interested to see a few others that I'd always known were there but never tried. Google Earth, for example, has grown a lot in functionality since I first tried it years ago. Where it used to be mostly just a novelty, I can imagine with its new features being able to use it as a tool to help actors begin to get a better feel for settings - and that same use would probably port well into literature study as well. I was also interested to see that Google has a high functionality translation engine - whenever I've needed a tool for that purpose, I've always searched for a random one to use, not knowing that there was one integrated right into Google.
I still don't think I can forgive Google for hiring itself out as an accomplice to BP's attempt to spend as much on image protection as it is spending on actual cleanup, but I suppose I can look past it... heh heh...
Thank you for introducing me to the vehicle I will use to take over the world!

ReplyDeleteI plan to use this to help coordinate student efforts in collaborative projects, where conventional communication often breaks down.

Blogging is bloggeriffic! After 12 attempts, I am successful. I will definitely have my students follow the directions in order to create their own blog!
