What is a Blog? A blog is an online diary, journal, newspaper, individual Facebook that you can share with whomever you designate. Why Blog? To record and to share your thoughts. What value is a Blog and Blogging to a teacher? Blogging is a communication process...more informal that most. You can use your expressiveness, artistry, personality, and narrative to connect with your students over content or items of mutual interest. One must keep in mind the ethics herein and develop some rules of the trade.
Dr. Lynne is limited today without a Wi-Fi hot spot so I could not get to the pictures on my phone to share with you. I can and I will.
My one photo is of my grandson and me a year ago at the Portland, OR Rose Garden sharing a terrific laugh! Parker enters the University of Washington this fall as a Freshman. He had a terrific high school record, of his own choice, so I am very proud of him!
What is better than teaching? Not much. What I have learned about teaching is amazing, yet I will close with this thought from William Hurt, actor. He stated while on the Tavis Smiley Show, "What I already know, you cannot teach me. What I want to learn, I will learn." 06/19/15. What that said to me is that the learner is in charge of his/her gateway to learning. Why waste our time. Why not excite the learner to open his/her gateway to learning? A Blog and Blogging might just do that!!!
