Blogging Forms Coming In
Things are getting exciting. Quite a few Blogging User Agreements are flowing in and the class’s new online community will be ready to launch very soon. I have been busy creating and setting up your new blogs - hopefully, we will be ready to roll by Tuesday’s computing room time. In the meantime, it is a good idea to see how other students around the world have been using their blogs. Here are some starting points - take the to browse, read and if time permits, add a comment.
The Denali Students - Fairbanks, Alaska, USA.
Many Voices for Darfur - Read the instructions at the wiki, no comments yet.
Room Twelve - Grade 3’s in Seattle, Washington, USA.
Thoraz Thinkers - Grade 5’s in Bangkok, Thailand.
I’ll add some more here as I find them, but there are some good starting points.
LA20’s work last year on our Spin The Globe wiki meant that we have been added to the links at Youth Twitter, which is also another place to connect to other similar aged students worldwide online. Thanks to Paul Allison, a teacher in New York City for pointing this link out to me.
