My plan for professional learning:
1. Using Blogging to its full potential.
IF I model to students and make thinking and purpose visible for posting and commenting THEN students should apply this and use blogging as a tool for conversations and not just a place “to post”.
2. Using Twitter and Blogging to connect students to resources and people outside the classroom.
IF I model using Twitter to share student blog posts that involve inquiry based questions that promote discussion THEN we should have more connections happening between our classroom and the global community.
3. Pursue more indepth conversations on student blogs through commenting.
IF I model to students to check their own notifications for new comments, respond to those first, then go on to their peers blogs THEN students will have the time to respond to questions/comments and extend the conversation.
