The math teacher's daily assignments were put on a blog from which his students could contribute and he could include examples for them to work on. Taking the daily objective of each math skill and applying it on a blog is a great idea to get the students involved with technology and getting the lesson done at the same time.
Mrs. Myrmel's classroom blog was directed at informing the student's parents on what their children are doing each day. I really like this approach to use blogging in education because it allows parents to become involved in their children's studies with the click of a mouse.
The Everts' Times blog was interesting because it allows parents/educators to view the students' thoughts on their schoolwork and activities. This is a great use of a blog to allow students' to express themselves and perhaps find out what is and isn't working in classroom strategies.
The Clem 2005 blog was much like the Everts' Times blog, in that it allowed students
to voice their opinions or ideas on a subject that could be viewed by everyone.
To be honest. Mrs. Huff's English class blog was a bit confusing to locate all the material and what it meant because of the page layout. But it included outside sources and information students could use in their reports or work that could help them and also posted weekly reminders of the classes' agenda so it was easy for the students to keep up with what was going on.
Ideas I would use from these blogs would include letting parents access the blog to see what the class was currently working on and also letting students communicate and express their own ideas and opinions on a subject because I would like to know how well my students are understanding the material and generally how they feel about it.
