Commenting in a community works for me in a professional areas, but not in the personal area. This is probably a generational pattern that I will not be able to break or for that matter want to break. My upbringing did not allow the public sharing of private family issues.
Commenting in a community will work for me at work. I recognize the need and the ease at which a group of teachers can discuss issues of curriculum and content. Since ELA has new TEKS for the 09 - 10 school year, we need to be able to clarify many of the knowledge and skills and student expectations. Multiple voices will be helpful in the process.

That's a great idea for a blog. I can see posts from you on the various student expectations with teachers clarifying and discussing in the comments.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you and see many possibilites for working with teachers. Ths idea of having a place to engagae in meaningful dialogue with them is very appealing to me.
ReplyDeleteI agree that commenting on a blog on topics of personal nature is uncomfortable. However, as you stated giving teachers the opportunity to share ideas on curriculum and content using Web 2.0 opens the door to wider range of resources for educators to use.
