Reasons to Blog

http://coolcatteacher.blogspot.com/2011/05/12-reasons-to-blog-with-your-students.html

Blogging teaches digital citizenship would be the relevant heading to my class. Students need to know how to be professional and proper in their online etiquette and a classroom blog would be a proper forum for that.

I think that blogging can be a valid form of assessment in terms of student participation. I would count a student actively blogging towards their participation grade. I don't know if you could have a rubric on blogging that you could assess. You could have students post an assessment in their blog that you could assess or a project but I don't think blogging in general is able to be assessed.

  1. Could you incorporate Latin? Post something in Latin and discuss?
