Student blogs…

Year 12 - In order to help you to track and focus your reading-around the topic the blogs are back in new form…

www.blogs.jrowing.com

your blog will be public to the world and available at your username.

users can comment and link stuff - you can customise the look and feel as much or as little as you like!

The purpose of these is make you think about what we’ve been doing and the extra stuff you’ve been up to (websites etc included) and putting this into your words will really help you to remember it.

As an added bonus you can see what others are up to and share your thoughts and comments.

Remember -

be constructive! and…

You get out what you put in, go at it with a positive attitude and you’ll produce a really great tool for revision!

why blog, first thoughts…

Really this blog should be titled slightly differently, I am, afterall, refering to educational blogs rather than blogs in general.
the reasons are many and varied but include;
Better ownership of learning
Better feedback to me as a classroom practitioner
A more relavent and modern record of your learning
In addition, this blog allows me to pass on thoughts and links that I think you will like but that might not fit elsewhere in the curriculum.
