Thing 3 of 23 Things: Register Your Blog

I have registered my blog! Now that I have one, what shall I use it for in my teacher education program (other than to complete the 23 Things assignment) or my future classroom? Anne Davis has some really good suggestions in her blog, Edublog Insights. I like her suggestions for using it as a reflective journal:

  • reflect on your teaching experiences.  
  • keep a log of teacher-training experiences.
  • write a description of a specific teaching unit.
  • describe what worked for you in the classroom or what didn’t work. 
  • provide some teaching tips for other teachers.
  • write about something you learned from another teacher.
  • explain teaching insights you gain from what happens in your classes.
  • share ideas for teaching activities or language games to use in the classroom. 
  • provide some how-to’s on using specific technology in the class, describing how you used this technology in your own class.
  • explore important teaching and learning issues.
I could see myself posting each of these suggestions. To keep my blog organized, I'd be sure to tag each post for quick references down the road.
