Setting up the Blog.

Setting up this blog was fairly simple. I followed the step and surprise, surprise it worked! Then came the thinking, I needed to allow the group to be able to edit and add to the blog. I wasn't sure if a blog could work like a wiki where everyone has control over the content or if I was leading the blogging now. I'm actually still not sure because I made everyone an author. I am hoping that everyone can at least comment because I can easily start a topic. I liked the fact that there were templates to choose from and the setting were also pretty easy to find. I am hoping that using this blog will be as easy as it was to set it up. I can see myself possibly using it in the classroom if it this simple!

Has anyone else set up a blog before? Did you find it simple enough to follow? Do you think parents would be able to follow the idea of using a blog if a teacher used it for class information?

  2. I think this would be confusing to parents at first but after they get use to it, it may be easier. As for my self the e professor put out 2 questions. What are ways that teachers can use technology to help learning disabled students better understand the general education curriculum? Which of these would also be an example of a curb- cutting effect (designed for a certain population but beneficial to the whole)?

    2. Is the use of technology for students with learning disorders more effective if they are exposed to it at an early age or should we wait until they children are at a specified level of development before exposing them? Why?
    Are we suppose to discuss the answers here are on the website, I am confused.

  4. Many people seem to think that Twitter is a “fad” and will not stand the test of time – that is still to be seen. But, what you cannot deny is that Twitter offers a great way to find information and ask questions. Many of the people who are on Twitter are active and so if you post something or ask a question they will more than likely respond.
