Getting Serious about Blogs in Schools
This article provides an interesting discussion of how OTHER schools are implementing innovative web practices into their classroom. Also has links to a great post.
"If you want to find an area of the country that is getting really
serious about the Read/Write Web in the classroom, look no further that
Western New York. If nothing else, the last two days here speaking to
and with the superintendents from about 50 districts and the staff
developers from the Erie BOCES made it clear that these people either
get it or want to get it and will do whatever it takes to move the
schools in a new direction. It’s been really gratifying to be involved
in some very provocative, challenging, and imaginative discussions,
ones that I think bode really well for the students and teachers of the
region.
For the last few months, the BOCES has been planning a series of
blog, wiki and podcasting in services that will start up in September
throughout the region. They’ve invested in servers and training, and
it’s an attempt at least at the kind of support that’s needed to make
their efforts successful."
