WHY BLOGGING?
for Sekolah Ciputra Bloggers
ICT PD –May 2013
“ Blog/WebLog: a web page containing brief,
chronologically arranged items of information.
A blog can take the form of a diary, journal,
what's new page, or links to other web sites.”
Peter Scott, Internet Librarian 2001
Blog is a powerful sharing
media
 Blogs give you a voice, and that voice is easily
published across the reallyWideWeb in one
click.
 Blogging for teachers is to build collaborative
relationships through sharing teaching
experiences, philosophies, ideas, and
practices with colleagues.

Blog is a 24/7 classroom
 Creating meaningful interaction with
students, parents, and colleagues.
 Keeping open lines of communication with
parents, informing them about homework
assignments, updating them on classroom
activities and news.

assignment.html
Blog is relevant for digital
natives
 Providing students with a unique “arena” to
discuss their interests, express their opinions,
and share their ideas.
 Inviting students to participate in and
contribute to the technology driven world in
which we live.

Blog is an online portfolio
 Cataloging day to day teaching learning
experiences which include the teacher’s
thoughts and reflection
 Documenting your teaching learning
evidence for your digital portfolio.

Blog is profitable

build your blog (and some lucky factor..!) you
might earn some profits from blogging.
