Thing #3

     So today I just get to write about how I feel I can use a blog in the educational world now and in the future.  Right now I feel that if I do not complete my blog than I will fail my Education 3040 class...lol, but other than my class I could use this blog or another blog to illustrate what I have been learning in class and ask other educators or classmates what I should do to improve on a lesson or advice for a project that I am doing for another class.  In the future when I begin student teaching, I can blog about how my  experience is going and that why I maybe able to keep track of the reflections required at the end of the semester.  Then when I graduate, I will already having a blog which will help me center my thoughts at the end of the day.  This will allow me to refer back later in life on how I felt about certain aspects in my past and how I have changed and grown into a well rounded adult and mentor.  Having a blog seems like a new found item for teachers and I have to admit that it is for me, but when I start teaching most of my students might have a blog already and if they do then I differently think a blog will be a great idea to see if the class understands the lecture material and for them to post questions and comments about the week's instructional material.  I think these blogs are the start to a new adventure.
