Source Students write a blog post about the project to accompany their work and ask for comments. Students have an accessible digital portfolio of their work for review, they cite sources, and network with their peers using comments. Students log in, manage their blogs appearance, upload/share projects and materials How does blogging relate to Bloom's Digital Taxonomy? Students use tags and use hyperlinked words to draw traffic to their blogs and provide additional information to readers. Students evaluate and reflect on their work by reading comments and evaluate others by providing feedback. Students are motivated to create because they have an outlet to share and publish projects including podcasts, movies, music, animation and artwork. Source
Editor's Notes
- We started a blog initiative in my school district three years ago and have seen tremendous growth in our students writing, connectedness and overall effort as they began to realize that their work is being published to the web. This presentation will address how students can benefit from blogging. Photography: With the exception of those cited, all photos are courtesy of presentation author.
- Here are five reasons to consider student blogging .

- Life skills: online news and resources, online courses, future professional learning networks Students need a place to make mistakes and navigate online distractions in a supervised environment. (Students are using collaborative tech for mostly non-academic purposes, thus creating many bad habits and interactions online.)
- Blogs provide a jumping off point for discussions on internet safety. Students learn that the things they put on the internet are permanent. Students learn that blogs are similar to an online community and that we need to treat others like we would want to be treated.
- They will think critically about their writing and other students' writing. They will learn how to reflect & respond appropriately. They will share projects they have made as they finish them. They will collaborate with each other and teachers as well as collaboration with the world outside of our four walls. People will actually read their work!
- A blog is an effective way to show a student's learning achievement over time. Students will create a positive digital footprint on the web.
