Week 1 Part 2

Here is part 2 of our Week 1 assignment. In this part of the assignment, we are supposed to write an analysis of how educational leaders might use blogs. Here goes!
To start with, I don't think that I have ever met an educator who didn't like to talk. Talking is what we do, all day, every day. So blogs provide educators with an outlet for talking to other educators about any number of things. Many young educators started using blogs in college. They understand the power that blogs have in keeping people connected. Blogs can connect educators in one part of the world with educators in another part of the world.Years ago, we had pen pals, now we have blog followers. It is basically the same thing. People writing about what is important to them and having other people respond in kind. Locally, blogs can help educators within the same school district form research teams to study and analyze problems that are occurring across the district and across campuses. Educational leaders can use blogs on their campus as a way to share information and research with teachers plus these same leaders can blog with other campus leaders, sort of as a support team for each other. Blogs are a wonderful way to communicate with new friends and old.
