Blogging as a way to demonstrate my knowledge and understanding of
various literacy topics has been an enjoyable experience for me. Often times,
as a student and teacher, I feel that only a small percentage of people are
able to gain an understanding about how I feel, and what I think relating to
educational topics. Showing information on the blog provided me with the
opportunity to gain more feedback from my peers, and others with similar
interest. When you are constantly on a journey of self-improvement both
positive and negative feedback can be utilized for your betterment.
Since I work with very young
students, pre-k and kindergarten, I do not see myself using blogging as an
assignment or teaching tool. I do however see how it can be beneficial
for older students. It not only provides a source for them to share their
ideas but there is also a plethora of information available for them to
utilize. I myself plan on using a blog as a way to share thoughts, ideas,
and experiences with other educators. I have found blogging to provide me
with some form of personal satisfaction and I am sure that feeling will
increase the more I share and am able to support others. This experience
has opened a door for me and I am looking forward to see where it leads.
