For years I have followed the blogs of friends, family, and complete strangers. I love to see what my sister is doing in New England or learn a great new recipe, but have never taken the time to start my own blog. I think it's kind of like Facebook: I like to see what everyone is doing, but don't take the time to update myself. I found out there is actually a word for this - "antisocial networking." Wow.
I am excited that the first assignment for the DPS Technology Challenge is to create a blog. It seems like an educational blog would be a great way to communicate with teachers, parents, students, and educators around the world to share ideas across classroom and school boundaries. I am hoping that participating in the DPS Technology Challenge can help me learn some different ways to use technology both inside and outside the classroom.
And, hopefully by stepping into the blogging world, this will help me with my "antisocial" issues.
