Good example of using blogs in a classroom.
This blog is used by Crystal, a computer science teacher. She is using her blog as a place where students can have access to assignments; as a place for their responses to various class readings; and as a place where they can register progress or questions about projects.
Here is what she has said elsewhere about her vision:
My goal is to teach computer science, and for my students to have a place to share ideas on problem solving techniques. Part of problem solving is doing a little research, and I’ve made them lazy about this research. They have just turned to me to “fill them up”. Now, I’m asking them to fill eachother up with ideas.
