INST 4015 Assignment

Hey ya'll!! This post is for an assignment I am doing for one of my classes.

In conjunction with the assignment, I had the opportunity to look at a few educational blogs. They were all awesome and all gave me great ideas of how to use blogs in the education field.

The first blog I saw was Mrs. Cassidy's Classroom Blog. This was a great blog outlining a class of six year olds in Canada. This gave me great ideas, especially using technology with younger students.

The second blog I saw was Mrs. Yolli's Classroom Blog. This blog was very impressive and very interactive. It had great videos and links. It was neat to see how that class gets to interact with people from all around the world using technology.

The third blog I examined was Mr. Longhorst's Web Classroom. This blog was probably my favorite because it was specifically for a History Class in Secondary Education. This gave me great resources for integrating technology in teaching social studies.

I am also following many other blogs (mostly my classmates). These blogs are linked in with my Google RSS reader. This is a great tool!
Two of the links are:

http://rustedpleasures.blogspot.com/2011/09/social-studies-blogs.html

These are blogs from two classmates of mine. Very good insights already received from them.

Well, thats it, I hope I covered everything!
