Rethinking the Use of Blogs

Today during staff development administrators were asked to rethink the way we are using blogs and how we are getting our blogs out to others. Many ideas were shared. I have been using blogs primarily as a means to share instructional strategies. Blogs can also be used to brag on students and teachers and to share teachable moments. In regards to sharing my blogs, I currently tweet my blogs. Other ideas are to utlize Pinterest, include link on weekly electronic newsletters, and to include hashtags when tweeting. The possibilities of building your digital footprint are endless. Have fun!
