Lesson 2

What I learned from this lesson is that blogs allow me to share in unique ways on how I can share information. It allows me to share things that are on my mind and write about it. Almost as though I was talking to a person face to face. The second thing I learned is that I can share my blog with family or friends. I can talk about an important event that is going to happen or will happen. For example-My emotions going through a deployment.

A blog is also useful for teachers. It can help a teacher to post assignments, review questions and any notes that a student will need for that class. There are some teachers that I know who use blogs to communicate with their students. My child actually uses this tool.

Safety is another item that I learned about. Especially when setting up a blog for students. Just to avoid any unnecessary stress or lurkers. A gated blog will help protect the students from lurkers.

Test Post

Where can I start-well first i have been busy as a bee taking 3 online courses, working, being a mom and anxiously waiting for my husband to come home from Iraq. I guess you can say that I am keeping myself busy. I really don't do blogging, but after this class it could change. I don't think myspace and facebook count. LOL

Well until next time
