Last blog about blogging...

Well its official this will be my last blog of the semester (I hope not my last blog ever). This Computers and Education class has provided me with a lot of new experiences and opportunities including keeping up with my very own blog and it has been a great one. I never realized how many blogs are out there and how many topics were covered, especially education and teaching. It has been great reading blogs posted from other teachers and aspiring teachers about their classroom experiences and activities they have done that they found most productive within their students. However, I have also found blogs that teachers have used for their own personal "ranting and raving sessions" about their students and the schools they teach in, even though I did not find many of those it is just important to remember that those kinds of postings are not what blogging is about and should not be used for that purpose because others can read them and feelings will be hurt as a result of it. All that said I just want to make it clear that blogging has been a positive learning experience for me and it has introduced to me a new way of communicating with other teachers and providing families a more technology based way of sharing what we have been doing in the classroom. I hope that with all the information I have attained about blogs and the positive results they can produce I will have the opportunity to one day introduce blogging to a group of students and see what their reactions are to it... This has been a great semester, thanks to everyone for reading my blogs and I hope to talk to all of you again in person or using some form of technology someday since we are all just so smart now about using different forms of technology communication :)
