Module 2

Although I have not explored Blogging in my classroom, I have, with my co-teacher, set up a twitter account for our class. This proved to be a useful communication when our Year 5/6 were on camp; allowing for first time 'camp parents' to allay anxieties and for all parents to enjoy the students' camp experiences vicariously.
Twitter, when used purposely and not in a vacuous nature, allows for the school/parent/student to keep in contact and meaningful communication; parents (invited to join the class Twitter account) can see snap shots of the school day.
Blogging, too, could enhance the student to purposely reflect on their learning.
