In researching the use of blogging in schools around the United States, there were alot of sites about blogs. Schools are trying to make this the norm with our school age kids. We live in such a computer world that the idea of communicating with the world with blogs is an exciting thing for children and young adults.
At the school St.Joseph in Quebec City, they have introduced blogs. The children of all ages past the 3rd or 4th grade love it. They use the blogging to hear about anouncements, learn about different educational issues. The thing that the students from this school like the most is being able to express their views and ideas with other students and people. The schools in Western New York are still trying to get the concept of blogging in a educational way. The blogs in school incourage students to write, think, and view other classmates work on subjects and issues.
