This blog is a class project for the EDUC 214 - Teaching with Technology course at the University of Southern Indiana. Periodically throughout the Spring 2011 semester, students will post a blog about a technology or application they have learned in class. They will also post a lesson plan using that technique or technology. By the end of the semester this site will be a resource for when the students begin classroom teaching.

Blog/Website
Adding a blog to our website was a very simple process, but it is very helpful. When using Google Sites, teachers have the ability to create a Blog as an Announcement. This way, students and families can always be updated about what is going on in the classroom. For instance, in my website, I created 3 blogs about an upcoming field trip, extra credit opportunity, and community service opportunity. These blogs can also be edited and updated any time, and the include the date and time stamp for extra reference. I really enjoyed the ease and convenience of having a blog. Regardless of grade, blogs are definitely a benefit in the communication between school and home.
