Netguide Web Awards has announced the best personal blog.
Just an idea, should we also run some form of competition to jazz things up for our students ^_^
We are in the news :-)
Blogger.com CL Compatibility Issue
Tested and discovered that the Search in blogger.com does not very well support CL input. Hence, the building of a teacher’s repository isn’t advisable as things will become ‘lost’ in no time.
Further tested the movabletype Search. It performs without problem when searching content in CL.
ePortfolio (with blog option)
This is a proprietary system developed by Audree Thurman for building of an ePortfolio. Looking at the types of pages available, this will definitely gives teachers/students more choices for organising their stuff, other than just blogs.
“Voice”
Voice – not which that comes out thru the mouth, but that in writing.
“Voice is the writer’s presence in a piece of writing” as Tom Romano defines it in his article The Power of Voice published in Education Leadership Oct 2004 Vol 62 No.2 Pg 20-23.
“Voice is the key to helping our students develop into writers. We must give them opportunities to hear their own written voices and the written voices of others�their peers, their teachers, and the best authors.”
