Blogs
Blogs can be used in language teaching in several ways. Teachers can create a class blog as a shared space for students and the teacher to post writing, photos, audio, and videos. Blogs allow students to develop writing skills through regular practice and feedback. They also encourage student participation and build a sense of community. Blogs can be used to track student work and assess progress over time through their online portfolio. Teachers should engage and encourage students to maintain interest in using blogs for learning.

Blog Assignment Reflection
The document discusses a blog assignment where students were instructed to create their own blog on Blogger about an education topic they chose. The author chose to argue for the need for teacher aids in schools. Students also had to read and comment on two classmates' blogs.
In reflecting on the assignment, the author notes they enjoyed creating their first blog and found Blogger's formatting easy to use. They felt strongly about their topic on teacher aids. The ability to connect with classmates by reading and commenting on each other's posts was appealing. The author sees potential uses for blogs as a teacher, such as creating blogs for students to follow with assignments, materials, and news or for facilitating discussions on subject areas.

Photoshop in the primary school
This presentation was given during a recent Adobe online course called Photo Imaging - a crash course for the classroom. It gives examples of ways I use Photoshop Elements in my year 6 classroom. I use Photoshop Elements to reach some of my Art and Literacy outcomes. The skills my students learn are transferable and relevant, since Adobe Photoshop is still the market leader in photographic manipulation.

Blogs in ELT (Final Asssignment for the E-learning and Digital Cultures Course)
This is my final assignment for the E-learning and Digital Cultures course organized by the University of Edinburgh on www.coursera.org in February 2013. The assignment consists of two files. The first file includes a PowerPoint presentation dedicated to the use of blogs and blogging activities in the system of teaching English as a second/foreign language. The second file contains some theoretical materials related to the use of blogs in English language teaching, as well as my meditations and reflections on the use of blogging activities in my actual teaching practice. So both files are related to the same topic - the use of blogs as a form of online writing in the system of teaching English as a second/foreign language. So these materials refer to some extent to several important and up-to-date aspects discussed in the given course as "Communication technologies", "Open (and Opening) Education" and "The Meanings of Learning".
Blogs and education
Blogs have several educational benefits for students. They are highly motivating, provide opportunities for students to read and write, and are effective forums for collaboration and discussion. Blogs can be used for classroom management by informing students of assignments, for collaboration on developing writing skills, and for discussions outside of class. Student work can also be organized and stored as digital portfolios on blogs. Popular blogging platforms that are free to use include Edublogs, Blogger, and WordPress. When implementing blogs in the classroom, teachers should choose a platform, understand how they will be used, set up student accounts, set rules and a code of ethics for students.

Project Based Learning involves students investigating and responding to complex, open-ended questions or challenges over an extended period of time. It incorporates hands-on, collaborative work and the use of technology. Benefits include improved critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and motivation to learn. For example, a 3rd grade class studying the environment builds a class garden where students keep journals, work in groups with responsibilities, and share reflections on a class blog and personal wiki pages. Technology like blogs, wikis, and social media can support Project Based Learning.
