Item #2 and 3-Blogs in Education

After reviewing other blogs, some in education and some on my own web search, I can see the benefit to utilizing them within the curriculum. The benefit I can see is within the language arts curriculum. I can see the benefit of having students read a chapter or an entire book, then post responses to certain questions. From there, other students can respond to those posts, with their thoughts or feelings in regards to the characters, setting, etc. You could get a lively discussion going on even the most difficult reading material such as Shakespeare or Socrates.
