"My school began flipping all of its classes, which meant that for homework, I was assigned videos to watch, which were made by my teachers and explained the material which we were learning. During class, instead of listing to my teacher lecture, we began doing our homework assignments.

Suddenly, everything started to make sense."

"When I asked my students recently how blogging in class makes a difference to them, they had lots to say.

But for the teacher, bringing blogging into the classroom can be both thrilling and terrifying at the same time. No doubt about it, making the decision to try student blogging is an act of courage. With that in mind, I'd like to share eight things I've learned that can help ensure your brave step is also a wise and successful one for you and your kids. "
