Something to Remember
Good teaching is about not always having a fixed agenda and being rigid, but being flexible, fluid, experimenting, and having the confidence to react and adjust to changing circumstances. It's about getting only 10 percent of what you wanted to do in a class done and still feeling good. It's about deviating from the course syllabus or lecture schedule easily when there is more and better learning elsewhere. Good teaching is about the creative balance between being an authoritarian dictator on the one hand and a pushover on the other!

One important reason to Blog!
Students of all ages love technology! Utilizing Blogging in the classroom can help to engage and motivate students! As stated in the text, I agree that a Blog can support different learning styles. For students who might be more reticent in class, a blog gives them the opportunity to share in writing the ideas they may be too shy to speak about in class!
