    Do agree or disagree that the resource can be used efficiently in your own future classroom? Explain why or why not. I agree that I can use this resource in the future of my own classroom. This resource gives great ideas on how to use blogging effectively and ways to get students blogging in the classroom. I like how it is organized by regions of the United States. Do you believe the resource is mostly for teacher use, student use, or both? Explain your perceptions constructively. I believe this blog is mostly for teacher use, but its use for teachers explains how teachers can allow students to get into blogging or gives resources to help with their classroom teaching. Are you aware of any simililar resources that should be considered? If so, what are those resources. I'm sure there are other blogs that compile great blogging resources, but I have not come across such a compiled list.

    This is an intriguing list and looks like the various blogs deserve time to be looked at more. It is always interesting (if not therapeutic) to read from others "in the trenches." Two that I enjoyed reading were "TeachBad" and "TeachPaperless." Some good comic relief was provided, as well as some interesting ideas! I'm wouldn't say this site is really useful for students, but then again, maybe they'd be nicer to us if they read stuff like this. ::smile::

    This resource is an awesome compilation of great teacher blogs from around the country and world. It can totally be used as a resource for students as they begin to learn how to blog or for those aspiring to be on that list to reach a little higher! This resource is mainly one for teacher use, but all the ideas inside these blog links makes it readily apparent and available to be used in a current classroom. There are a number of similar lists out there (take a look and blog the title and a few come up) so this is not a one of a kind list; however, it is expansive and does provide a good list of HS teachers to follow and their regions. Cool idea for sure! How many of these are you going to follow now?
  •  
    Randon, I'm sure I'll end up following quite a few. Unfortunately I haven't had time to delve too deeply into the list. It is on my to do list though! :)

    Excellent source for teachers. I shared this with our English teacher who does things with blogs and wiki's in her classroom. She was very excited for new material to use. There are many different and unique topics in this site which she had never seen before.

    I really enjoyed looking more into Mrs. Nessman's blog. I am a huge fan of blogs and love to get new ideas. I feel some of the best ideas are ones in which we find from other teachers. She provides a lot of creative ideas in which I could modify to use within my own future classroom. Thanks for sharing!
  •  
    This is a really neat blog! I always enjoy reading about new and creative ideas that I could possibly use in my future classroom. Mrs. Nessman's blog is very impressive and creative! I could definitely see myself using this blog as a reference when I am a teacher. I have not encountered any other blog that is this innovative. I can see many teachers learning much from Mrs. Nessman. Good find, Nicole!

    This blog is awesome, i really liked it and enjoyed it. this will be very useful for kids. this blog have been designed to meet specific reading aspects for grade 1 students. well done work.
  •  
    Thanks for sharing this blog. Although I am a Special Education teacher I still felt like their were a lot of ideas I could apply to my classroom. It's always fun to see what other educators out their are doing. This blog would be used primarily for teachers as its all about ideas in the classroom for instruction and projects. However you could use it to create a project choice list for you students to choose to complete so many by the end of the year.

About the Blog (Reality 101: CEC's blog for new teachers) - 0 views

  •  
    A blog about being a teacher in both the fields of special education and gifted and talented students. This blog discusses the many issues teachers in this field face.
  •  
    This was a very interesting blog. Although I rarely deal with special education or gifted and talented students on a regular basis, there is great information here that also carries over to regular classroom teaching. I enjoyed one blog on assessments especially. I always enjoy sharing other educator's perspectives on all things educational (or not). I could see anyone involved in education benefiting from this blog in one way or another.

    Great educational BLogs for Teachers
  •  
    Yes this is could be an efficient resource in the future. Its hard to sort through all the blogs for teachers out there and decide what they are all about. I hate searching for information, this will give me a great place to start when looking for a specific topic that may have useful information. This site is for teachers. It provides them with teacher blogs with information specific to teachers and classroom topics. Two websites that I also found that provides similar information would be: Edutopia and Teacher Seeds blogs.

    I am always looking for new blogs. I am trying to really pick blogs that really interest me and help me do my job! I will definitely check out this site.

The Tech Savvy Educator | a practical guide to integrating technology in the classroom - 2 views

  •  
    This is "The Tech Savvy Educator's" blog in which I follow. He includes a lot of everyday and current topics in which I find useful for a lot of my Ed. Tech classes. 
  •  
    Very interesting reading on timely topics for classroom teachers! After reading through several of his posts, I subscribed to his RSS feed. The posts provided food for thought about using technology in the classroom. The posts that immediately caught my attention, that I could put to use in my classroom, were about creating an instant online photo gallery and creating a low budget green screen. However, the most interesting post was "Learning + Video Games ≠ Gamification" that included a video of James Paul Gee and his thoughts on using gaming in education and as assessments.
  •  
    This blog is very interesting! I particularly like seeing how different content areas have their own tab - very neat and organized for specialized content teachers. This blog could be used efficiently in my future classroom because of its informative resources and ideas. This blog is probably more for teacher use since it is all about integrating technology into classrooms. I am not familiar with any other blog that has such informative resources and ideas that help educators to facilitate technology more in their lessons.

    This site allows students to privately blog with the protection from the internet. Students are given usernames and passwords and only those with access to the classroom can view the blogs. This site is a safe way for kids to get involved in blogging.

Schools of Thought - CNN.com Blogs - 1 views

    A great education blog from an awesome source - CNN.  Good articles abound on this website and are easily categorized into columns as well.
  •  
    If you don't yet follow this blog on Twitter or Facebook then you should! Always some great stuff about education, schools, and well written overall. An awesome resource for a good Sunday morning read.
  •  
    This site is a great resource to help keep up on what is going on in education at all levels. I especially liked the recent article entitled, "5 Things Teachers Want Parents to Know". I really don't think this site is just for teachers but I think teachers will be the ones to use the site most. Teachers are very busy and don't always have time to read several news feeds to get our educational news, so its nice that its all right here.

    This is a very attractive and organized blog. It's also neat, interesting, and helpful to see what other teachers are doing in other educational approaches. I plan for collaboration and sharing to be a huge part of my teaching and preparation. I feel that the blog author's experience and education will be very useful to any teacher looking for insight.
  •  
    This blog's simplicity is what I liked best about it. It shows great pictures and is organized in a way that easy to understand. Also, it gives great ideas for early education. I plan on teaching k-2 so this could give me great ideas for fun lessons!
  •  
    I found the first few posts in this blog to be really interesting, although probably not very useful for me as a future teacher. I don't know much about Montessori teaching or schools. Based on my initial impressions, and the fact that I fully plan on being a "messy classroom" teacher (lots of differentiation, lots of AT (I'm a special education minor in addition to being an ed. tech. minor), I'm not sure how much my classroom philosophy and organizational principals could relate to this teacher's. A very different perspective, to be sure! If I ever have free time (maybe over winter break!?) I'd like to read more about what this Montessori stuff is all about; I'm especially interested in the value of the "Practical Life" work this teacher is doing?? Totally different than anything I've seen in my educational training. Thanks for sharing. :)

    This is a great tool to use in order to show your students how to get started on their own blogs.  I would use this with older students in order to get them started on sharing different ideas that they might have with each other.
