As a digital immigrant I look forward to using this blog to chronicle my successes and challenges at UCF. There are so many new technologies that I need to learn and in time use in my profession. Just like my future students , a blog is a good tool to share my personal and professional experiences about technology with others. The interaction with other individuals and the potential to gain insight from them is very exciting. After reading some of the sample blogs it is my view that the most effective use for a blog is to have a collaborative relationship with your fellow students or peers. The blog should motivate students to do further research on a topic of interest to others in the class. The blog should also allow the parents to see the what their children are learning. Parents should also have the opportunity to add to the discussions in class with insight from their own past education and professional experiences.
I look forward to continuing the dialog...
Yes, there are so many uses for blogs--from personal to professional, from private to public! Peers, parents, students--all can benefit, use and create bogs!
