Using Blogs to Help Students Develop Global Awareness - video - 4 views

  •  
    Linda Yollis, an award-winning 3rd grade teacher, made this video with her students to share how they have used blogs to learn the importance of connecting online with others online, about Digital Footprints and Internet safety, and sharing their voice.

I say one thing and it means something different to each person who hears it.  You can share the information anyway you see fit, but don't share the meaning.
