Learning as a Way of Teaching

I’m out of the blogging evangelism game.

Over the past several weeks, I have looked at the Web 2.0 tools that I enjoy and can implement in my current teaching assignment.  The one tool that I am not happy at all with the outcome is student blogging.  Edublogs has helped me with the decision by changing their service plans.  I came to the conclusion that if I am not willing to fork over a few dollars to keep some of the features I was enjoying for free, then I apparently don’t need them.

I do not have my own class of students to work with every day.  Even the classes that I work with only have one day a week or less to spend in a lab, so it is impossible to gain any momentum.

So from here on, I plan to throw my efforts into implementing iPods and using video in the classroom.  It will be an interesting journey that I will continue to chronicle on this blog.  I will use blogs for my personal development, but trying to bring classes and other teachers into the edublogosphere is just not for me any more.
