Ed Tech

For the foreseeable future, I will be maintaining this blogspot as a space to discuss the use of Educational Technology...

With that I pose a question...

Is the utilization of student "blog spaces" in the classroom something we can see in the near future?

Developing an online forum for students to put their thoughts down on the internet could make for some interesting writing...especially if we are committed to bringing computer and internet access to ALL CLASSROOMS, and helping students learn to use computers as an alternative medium to writing...

...If we can help kids start channeling their Myspace-bulletin-rant energies to other, more educationally-sound mediums, then maybe we can help them get there...and by there, I mean, wherever we need them to be...in an English classroom. Yea dat.
