Using Blogs in the School Media Center

Blogs are a really good way to get students to apply many skills they are learning. When blogs are used, students are using writing skills, typing skills, and critical thinking skills at the very least. Specifically, the school media center can use blogs to inform parents and community members of recent ongoing in the library classes and to teach students lessons. I can definitely see blogs having a place in my school media center. I really like the way that students are not only challenging themselves to complete the assignment, but also reading others' work and getting and giving feedback. This is a useful tool for the collaboration between students and it can really be valuable in the learning process.
