First Blog.

This article was interesting. It was basically about introducing students to blogs and technology and the road block that come along with using blogs in the classroom. The students used the blogs as a chatroom of sorts at first because they did not understand the true meaning of a blog. Once they got the hang of it though, the students love it and it worked great when corresponding with the older students. Then when an administrator thought that a child gave away too much information about their personal life on their blog the school decided to not allow the blogs. Reverting back to pen and paper was very difficult for the students and one child even said that they thought they had lost thier voice. It cocludes with the fact that online blogging is almost expected in the future for classroom use. It seems to be a very practical and effiencent way to share ideas and points of views.
