Blogging Professional Learning Program

Blogging in Education
On Thursday, August 24th I will be faciliating a professional learning program on the use of blogging in education.

By the end of this professional learning program you will:

Have viewed different ways in which blogs are used to support learning.
Shared and developed ideas on how to use blogs for your students.
Have created a blog for you own use with www.blogger.com . This involves creation of user name and password, selection of template plus deciding on rules for your blog (open vs closed access, posting of comments etc).

http://www.ahistoryteacher.com/blog/index.html This is a great blog from a History Teacher which I have found - provides lots of interesting resources on blogging.
