First day with a blog

To think that long ago I did not even know what a blog was!  I am currently working on a Masters in Instructional technology.  I am currently working on a paper entitled Wiki and the Blog--here is an excerpt.

 

"Many years ago if I heard the title of this paper, I would assume it was a fairytale about some sort of Hawaiian totem pole and troll- like character named Blog.  But now it is 2008 and wikis and blogs are well known tools to many, yet ironically still not recognized words in my spell check.  This paper will explore what a wiki and a blog are from a forty something school teacher with a lot of help from the internet."

 

If any of you have any wisdom to share about wikis and blogs, let me know!  By the way...what on earth is a tag?

Blog on!  I'm a psychologist discovering this medium when my son-in-law was diagnosed with malignant melanoma.  Before that horrible fact-finding weekend on the net, I'd thought of blogs as not contributing as much as I now know they can.  We found blogs by patients and family members going through similar experiences, people we'd have no way to find otherwise.  Long way of saying I really think this site is great for teachers.

I'm writing on stress management and survival--

I am a fourth grade teacher in Littleton, CO. I am currently working on a Master's Degree in Instructional Technology at Regis University. As part of my studies, I thought it would be helpful for me to dive right in and try and create my own Blog. This summer I will be attending the Technology in Education conference. At school I am also a co-sponsor of student council. I have two kids, two dos and one husband.
