Educational blogs
Blogs provide a communication space that teachers can utilise with students whenever there is a curricular need to develop writing skills, to share ideas and to reflect on work being undertaken in the classroom.
Definition: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
From an educational perspective, the availability and ease-of-use of blogging software makes creating blogs a viable classroom activity and a means for teachers to communicate with other teachers.(Source: http://www.det.wa.edu.au/education/cmis/eval/curriculum/ict/weblogs/) (TÖRÖLT LINK!!!)
