Reflection on Practice
Having first learned about blogs in July 2006 at the Tech Matters 06 Advanced Institute, this workshop where I created this blog was a wonderful followup to practice what I had learned. It also gave me time to take pictures of the workshop participants.
I will post some of those pictures here at a later date.
I am busy creating the PLWP SI anothology on CD. Along with that is the Fall finish of the SI 06 fellows. This activity has grown form a meeting of the SI fellows to a
Saturday Seminar with 10 to 13 workshops available for participants. Participants have the opportunity to attend an opening session, 3 workshops, a luncheon where SI fellows read some of their pieces. This is open to any teacher in the region who pays the registration fee. Each participant is awarded 5 PD hour.
I am presenting one of the workshops along with trying to get pictures of all the others.

Uses for blogs
Bogs can have a multitude of uses.
They are very popular with young people for the social aspect that the bloggin offers.
Blogging opens up the whole world. It can connect geographically separated family, friends and friends to be. Blogging offers the opportunity for personal as well as academic collaboration.

Reflection of blog use
Blogs for---Readers--Purpose--More than one?One for studentsOne for academicsOne for personalI have a blog that is currently a variety of the above.It has a target audience of professional friends I made at Tech Matters 06 a NWP sponsored
advanced institute.I plan to start a blog for the advanced institute on blogging and digital storytelling to be
taught June 2007.Each participants would have a blog with another blog for the class. All would be connected
so that writings would be done on their own blog while class instructions etc would be
posted on the class blog. Reflections of what a participant learned and what questions they
have would be posted on the class blog. This would give me the opportunity to answer
questions either in class or within the blog.
