I can't say that I have been a real fan of blogs. The blogs I have visited in the past have been of people that write about the minutia of life as I call it. I just want to say: Who cares? Unless it is quirky, interesting or a bit out there, it does not appeal to me at all.
I have added a few Eduational blogs of interest. One is of our Board's Computer Consultant, Doug Peterson. He posts some interesting articles and I love the fact that he ties current affairs, and my love of politics in his blog. Next, we have What Every Teacher Needs and these are great articles and appropriate for this course and tied directly to teaching.
I did locate some local schools webpages to see what they were posting. Frankly, I did not find anything that appealed to me at all. Quite simply, they were school newsletters posted on a blog (lost and found articles, notes to parents, announcements). It was one-sided, did not invite participation or feedback. These criteria, do not make it a blog since it does not speak to a larger community and invite participation.
I will continue to search for great sites. I aim to look into French sites and some with a Special Education focus.
