Usefulness of a Collaborative Blog

Usefulness of a Collaborative Blog

At the Teacher's Desk is a collaborative blog that teachers from all over the nation use to share interesting experiences they have within the classroom. Most of the post in some way involve technology.

My favorite posts were the ones that had to do with Skyping the ESL classroom in with a Spanish classroom in another state. That seems like a very beneficial thing for both classrooms. I personally want to be an ESL teacher eventually so I was involuntarially drawn to those particular posts. I really love that they these students were able to take their common knowledge in order to help someone else in their education.

ATTD as a whole seems like a great way to share ups and downs of technology. Also in the ESL posts was where Mr. Chamberlin shared what he would change about his next video conference and why. I found this to be very beneficial for other teachers to avoid the same difficulties later on.
