Blogs?

Blogging is a concept that i had previously had not come across. Although i had heard the term blogging and blogs before i was unaware of there implications and abilities. for instance, the potential for blogs in school is huge, i have been thinking about the use in school, and have come to a conclusion. i believe that blogging could be an amazing way of carrying out assessment, for example, after each session they could write up what they have done on there blogs. this would work as a means of assessment and a way of keeping the school close by each class being able to follow each others work and what they are up to. another reason why i think blogging could be really useful is a means of parents being able to track their childrens work and ideas from class when at home!
