Blog Reflection Post
The second assignment for my class was to create a “blog”. I didn’t know anything about how to create
blogs, so I started researching about them. We can create a blog with different
topics, some blogs talk about politics, sports, education, or are personal
journals. All blogs have some similarities such as the name of the blog, the
author’s profile; the posts are chronologically reverse (the most recent on the
top), there is a section for comments, and a list of links. Some blogs have
videos. After I educated myself about blogs, I started my adventure. First, I
used blogeducation.com to create my blog, I started to personalize it, but I couldn’t
do everything I wanted to do. If I wanted to have more resources I needed to
upgrade and pay a monthly fee. I chose not to do it. I decided to try another
blog site. The new website was blogger.com. I really like it because it allowed
you to personalize your blog with more features. I was thinking about what name
would be good for my blog. I decided to name it Learning Spanish because I will be
sharing Spanish words with pictures. My followers could learn a new language while they
follow me through this technology journey. Blogs can be very useful for
teachers as an easier way to communicate with parents and students.
Updating every day with comments and posting homework as well. Students and parents can ask questions, and/or write their opinion about the material posted. Blogs can make
communication more fun and creative.

Hey Patricia,
ReplyDeleteI agree about blogs making communication more fun and creative. When it comes to a classroom though, I feel like it's going to need to be said that certain blogs can be more informal (which I would make sure is explained detailed), and others need to be formal. I think its fun that you are going to try to express yourself through your immediate language and help others learn as they follow you!
