Blogging to date

I do not have much experience blogging myself, but I have read numerous blogs. Most of the blogs that I follow--not that many to count--are educationally based and provide more information on changes and developments within the education setting. At this point, I do not feel that I have any new information or insight to contribute to the discussion. When I feel strongly about something I read or have an experience to add, I will comment.

One of my favorites is weblogged-ed: learning with the read/write web (http://weblogg-ed.com/category/on-my-mind/). It is maintained by Will Richardson, the author of "Blogs, Wikis, Podcasts, and Other Powerful Web Tools for Classrooms." Richardson often posts in response to something he has read or experienced His insights help me to understand the power of the web in relation to education at all levels. He always offers links to materials he is commenting on, such as The Participation Divide: Content Creation and Sharing in the Digital Age. Sometimes he just comments on things he has been reflecting on or questions he has been asked. His blog posts are archived in a menu and is a rich resource for any research.

I am looking forward to sharing more about blogs, education, and learning in the next couple of weeks.
