The blog

Hello everyone, This is my new blog. While we are required to only post one entry on our blog in relation to the three listed items, I like to do all three. Hopefully something I write may help another student within this class.

1. I am looking at creating a Webquest for a famous photographer (Something I do very often - home page:  capitelli-photography.net) or just about photography.

2. If I was teaching I would rather have  students students use del.icio.us to bookmarking articles and commenting on them online instead of finding/purchasing newspapers for the purpose of cut out articles and comment on articles, Great way to save paper.

3. I came up with a few ideas on how to use blogs in teaching. The teacher can have students to create a blog for English class. After reading some type of literary text, students then can update the writing or create a point of view for the rest of the class to view. Students can also add related topics to a class discussion within their blogs, then present what they wrote in class by using audiovisual equipment.
