Welcome! Thank you for taking the time to read my thoughts on rigor in the classroom and applying differentiated instruction. I am analyzing the two in the classroom as my action research plan for my Masters in Education. Feel free to share your thoughts and ideas as well! - Mitzi :0)

Why me?? Why should educational leaders use blogs?

Why blog???  I must admit, this is a question I asked even myself.  Why should I or anyone else blog??  Blogging is part of the 21st Century and as educational leaders, we expect our students to be active learners in the 21st century, therefore we must do the same.  Blogging allows educational leaders to discuss "hot" topics that we all face.  Through blogging other eduational leaders are able to learn and provide feedback.  This open communciation has no boundaries by miles or distance.  It allows open communication for all that have an opinion or desire to learn.  It provides ample opportunity for those that want to stay in the "know."

    I agree with your statement, "Why blog?" I also was asking myself why anyone, especially me, would blog. However, after reading more and more on the subject, I see that blogging is the technology that our students are using. I also found that this is a great way for educators to keep in touch and update with others. I love that you say "it provides ample opportunity for those that want to stay in the know." Great job!

    This is good. Obviously, I need to dust off my technology skills as I couldn't even post responses (by the way, thanks for your help with that!)

    I like that you refer to the fact that kids use this stuff! Therefore, regardless of the cob-webs I plan on using it (blogs) in my classes this year.

    Keep your e-mail open for my technical difficulties :)
