Teaching Blogging
I dont think I am ready to teach blogging to my students. I was very skeptical about blogging because they are there for the world to see. I find that information for class is acceptable to post because it is an insight into my opinion on academic subjects. I think I am still in Phase 1 of the Thinking About Teaching Blogging to Your Students?. The only con for teaching blogging to our students is the assumption that all of our students have computers. This is a problem because it may make some students feel less fortunate than others by knowing they dont have a computer at home and they cant go home and continue to work on blogging.

The very reason why I was reluctant to create a blog before is because I was not comfortable with the thought of putting my opinions in black and white for everyone to read. It feels like once it's there, you can't just take it away. But then I realize, instead of deleting it, I actually have the choice of correcting myself in another posting. Sort of an I said, then I say again...:)Of course, I also have an option not to share to the public, huh! I know not everyone has an access to computers at home, but knowing that another opportunity to express oneself is available already expands their world.
