My CIS Modern Fiction students are starting to use the blog more. It is exciting to see them logging on and asking questions. I love that I have a place to post information for them as well, especially about things associated with the U and college applications that they might need, but don't need daily.
My AP Lit and Comp students don't use the blog very much. I still post information on it though and I will continue to monitor their usage of the blog.
My ninth graders are in the middle of the road. I wonder if a website would be more useful for all my students, but I do like the idea that they can have an ongoing conversation. I think I will have this information for parents at conferences so they know they can also use these blogs as a resource.
Other thoughts on technology--I love being able to present information on Power Point! Love it, love it, LOVE IT!
Teacher usage of the wikis...the jury is still out...
P.S. I found this info about Iraqis blogging, which I thought was interesting: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/talking_point/7069943.stm
