The use of blogs in education

Together with other types of new technology, blogs can also be used in our daily routine in the classroom as a tool to inspire and motivate students, especially those lacking motivation.

Which are the benefits of class blogging?

·    Blogging provides an authentic educational experience, where what they write is not only seen and commented on by their teacher, but by their peers and the “public.”

·   There is an authentic audience – a global audience – one that is willing to connect, share, challenge, discuss and communicate with classes. This audience can provide further information, opinions, suggest resources  and seek answers to questions and so on.

·     The blogging experience forces the students to do more reflection on their learning.
