There are so many benefits for using blogs in the
classroom but there are also some very important things to consider
before blogging with your students such as privacy and respect.
Privacy:
Teachers
must be certain that the blogs created by students are only being
viewed by the target audience. There are many different privacy
settings so make sure your choosing what is safe for students.
Respect:
It
is crucial that students understand the importance of showing respect
when blogging with others. They should use appropriate language and
always show respect towards each other. Students should be taught the
difference between a helpful feedback/criticism and negative feedback
that can be hurtful. This is something that should also be modeled for
them each day.
