  1. Hi, I really like that your blog is all about the benefits of using a blog in an Education setting. An idea for future posts is to add some kind of visual interest or even a link to another similar/related blog or website. Overall well written and well stated post. -Stephanie Gamache

  2. Javier,

    Your blog about using blogs in the classroom was very informative. I really enjoyed how you gave a number of different options and examples on how Blogs could be incorporated into the classroom. I also notice educators are a bit hesitant in incorporating new technology into classrooms because they do not feel confident in using the technology. Your suggestion for educators to start blogging themselves and reading other blogs to understand the format will help them overcome this obstacle, regarding adding blogs into the classroom. It can be intimidating for educators to try to incorporate a technology where the instructor feels as though the students are more knowledgeable then they are. However, students may know how to navigate blogs better, but they probably do not see the social or educational benefits of blogging. This is where the educator could guide the students in the right direction. - Allan Bui
