Blogger: Class Discussions Made Easy
Description
Appetizer Recipes
Blogger is the original self-publishing tool. It has great built-in features that make
it the perfect tool for classes and schools. Blogger provides teachers with as
much or as little control as they want and is accessible by more students than
any other technology-based tool. Create classroom discussions that continue
outside of the classroom and can encompass multiple classes of students, or
the world with the power of Blogger. It is the most versatile and accessible of all
of the Google tools. It increases access for students and members of a school
community, showing them how to collaborate and communicate with ease by
breaking down access barriers. Note: Be sure to consult copyright laws and fair
use before using images or videos in a blog.
Skills
