Blogs can be used in the classroom in numerous ways. They can support literacy, journaling, give students an opportunity to publish their work directly to the internet, discuss and comment on each others work, and create a sustainable, paperless classroom.
As an art teacher, I think a blog could become an electronic portfolio of student work. This would also give students the chance to explain and reflect on their own work, market themselves as artists, and discuss each others' work.
For French class, blogs provide a great opportunity for students to communicate with each other using written language, post projects, and respond electronically to other students in the class. Also, if we go on any field trips, blogging is a great form of travel journal. That way the student can look back on their own adventures in the future, but also share their stories with future students.
