IMPORTANCE OF BLOGS
The simplicity of creating and maintaining blogs
means that open discussions can be established
almost immediately, making blogs an ideal venue for
far-reaching discussions among the Internet
community on new or timely topics
Blogs engage people in knowledge sharing, reflection,
and debate, they often attract a large and dedicated
readership
Blogs foster the growth of communities, and the
dynamics of collaborative filtering and
recommending/referring may provide new ways to
evaluate, vet, and critique student-created knowledge
IMPORTANCE OF BLOGS
While the students develop their own blogs, teachers
can observe and monitor the students' progress, and
identify the learning needs that have not been
considered
