Helpful Website #2
http://kidblog.org
KidBlog is an outstanding website that you would be able to use in your classroom! It is designed for Kindergarten to 12th grade teachers. It allows for each students to have their own individual blog. Students can publish posts and participate in academic discussions within a secure blogging community within the classroom. Teachers have complete control over student blogs. KidBlog is an awesome way to create classroom discussions. It help students learn digital citizenship, practice writing skills, create an e-portfolio, reflect on learning, and formatively assess writing. This website would be great for all different learner challenges including, ADHD, autism, and learner disabilities like dyslexia. The software is very user friendly. I learned that the teacher can have total control over student blogging but students are still completely involved which is awesome for classroom community!

I really like your post about Kidblog. Perhaps this would also help students learn appropriate interaction or social etiquette when using social media or online forums. Both parents and teachers would be able to monitor their postings.

ReplyDeleteI love the website that you researched. I have never heard of this website until I read this blog post! I will try to use this website in my future teachings. Great job!
