Student Blogs: they are awesome

12/5/2010

27 Comments

 
Below you will find a number of pictures of students blogs.  They are still learning how to use the software.  They are doing great work.  Please ask to see their blog live on the web.  They have the class password to allow you to see it.  They are worth the time. 

Students, could you take some time today and response to the following:
1.  In general do you like doing a blog, why or why not?   2.  Does this change learning in any way?  If so, how?

Personally, I enjoy working on the blogs. It is a fun way to express what we know.
In addition, the blogs are teaching us how to use a variety of technological resources.

1. I like these blogs because we can write about/express history in our own ways.

2. It changes learning because instead of just flat-out taking notes, we can add posts to our blog as we go along. We are not pressured

I like how we can share each others blogs online. I think it is a creative thing to do and that people enjoy also.

1. I enjoy doing the blog a lot. It is fun and is a cool, new way of learning. Everyone gets a say in what their ideas are.

2. This does change learning. It's different and fun. We get to do this in class so we can get help from Mr. Holman if we need it.

This was a very cool blog, it was fun seeing other kids' blogs because the only other blogs i have seen are the person next to me and behind me.

1. I do like doing blog because it is a new way to learn.

2. I think it does change learning in a way because it is a new form of learning and I think it's more of a group learning. I think it's more of a group learning because students share their comments on things and other students can read their comments.

I like doing a blog, because I think it is a fun and interactive way to learn. I think this changes learning because it helps me do better work because I want to leave positive footprints.

1. I like the blogs because they make learning easier like if you have to study it could be on your blog. I like the blogs because they are fun, too.
2. It changes learning because it is faster and teaches you how to use technology. Its easy to access so whatever computer you are on, you can have it.

Honestly, I love the blogs. They are really fun and they seem to teach me many things. When I work with the blog, I seem to work harder to get a better grade, but it also teaches me a lot.

I think these kids did a great job on their blog. I like to do blog, it fun in some way, I learn how to do things. I learned so much by doing blog. One thing I learned is, I can put information what I know, then add pictures, video and more. I really enjoy doing blog.

I love using blogs to learn they are much more fun and interactive than textbooks and someone just standing there talking. It makes learning much more fun and interactive. Thanks

I think the blogs are a fabulous idea! They are soo much fun, if you use them right, and such a fab way to share your ideas, because alot of the times when you are talking about class in your social time, it is about either how annoying the teachers are or complaining about the homework for that night, NOT what we learned in class. We should talk more about those things, but it's just so boring in real life! On the blogs, other people (i.e.: friends, your teacher, parents, grandma[??]...) can take a couple of minutes to read your thoughts and opinions about what you are learning, and it could possibly change your friends' thoughts about class that day! Also, it will give your parent(s) an update of what you are doing! Definitely a fun thing to do and I am so glad to have a blog of mine that is put to good use!

I agree, the blogs are actually really fun. It's good how we get to go on the internet and like actually have our OWN blog!! I admit, it's pretty cool :)

I think the blogs are really cool and awesome! They are fun to build and experiment with. After a couple hours of messing around with my homepage, I pretty much got the hang of how to edit and build. There's so many possibilities! My parents love it too!
