Weblogg-ed

Love this blog!!


http://weblogg-ed.com


I have added a handful of educational blogs but this one, by far, is the most interesting and engaging one I have read. Usually I tend to skim through posts, but I find myself reading each and every word this author, Will Richardson, writes. I find that I have a lot of the same views as him, I keep nodding as I read. This site, "is dedicated to discussions and reflections on the use of Weblogs, wikis, RSS, audiocasts and other Read/Write Web related technologies in the K-12 realm, technologies that are transforming classrooms around the world."

Subscribing to educational blogs is a great way to stay connected to other educators and stay current in all areas of the field. It is interesting to read others' opinions and ideas and interact and discuss with them if you choose. I think blogs are a great resource to connect with a variety of people from many different backgrounds and experiences. For students, I can see great potential for connecting them and their work to a broader audience as well as allowing them to find a voice as they determine what is relevant and important to post or comment on.
