Making Sense of it All

Blogging is totally new to me. However, I can’t expect my students to blog if I don’t myself. I trying to get into the habit of blogging but the idea of placing my opinion, reflection, and conversations on various topics online is rather different to me. I think if I can become engaged in it myself, I will be able to encourage the students that may also feel blogging is different. I hope to become so engaged that I will be able to build relationships with peers, colleagues, and other professionals.


I have been adjusting to reading blogs so I can get into the habit of writing blogs but it is challenging especially after a long day of various meetings, responding to staff, student and parent emails, teaching and grading. It is my plan to create a blog site for my digital photography class by the end of October. This is the only class; I can attempt to use blogging this semester. The digital photography class is already paperless to a degree, all the worksheets and handouts are available online, all class work; homework and projects are submitted electronically with the exception of a few reflection worksheets.
