My first!

I've offiicially succeeded in becoming a blogger! It feels...good? It seems easier to create a blogger account than it is to create a meaningful blog. I guess you'll never now how cold the water is until you jump in. Canonball!!!!

So...I've always wondered how a blog could be used in the library or classroom, so all of you out there in the blogosphere, how are blogs enriching your students? Any examples? Ideas?

Help me:-)

  1. Hello Jonathan,
    I love your title!!! I've been calling Phil a "guybrarian" for the last 7 years (since he became one) and I think every guy probably likes that title better than librarian. In fact, I'd like another name for what I do too!
    I've helped teachers have students set up their own blogs on many topics....it could be for a research project and the student writes about the process daily - instead of in a paper journal. Many science classes require lab books, and it could replace the paper lab book..... Anything the student could write on paper, they could write in a blog.
    Congrats on being a blogger!

  2. Thanks for the suggestions! I like the idea of students writing about the daily process. My students call me the "guybrarian". HA!
