Blogs are the products of the technology. It can be easily created everywhere around
the world. It is also a website that has the integration of photos, words and
videos, etc. Students, especially those
young guys who are easily be attracted by the dramatic things will like the way
to use blogs as a part of their curriculum.
There are a lot of digital photos which will help the
students to broaden their knowledge. For instance, a geology teacher can use
the powerful image resources to show what’s the north pole look like instead of
boring description. A history teacher can also use a blog to show some valuable
photos that have been taken many years ago. Then, let the students give their
own comments on the historical events and exchange their minds with other students,
and the comments will never fade from the memory as time goes on.
Nowadays, teachers are liberate from the exhausting blackboard writing, they can post the most
important point on the blog, communicate with their students through the blog.
I believe that will bring more convenience to some students and leave no space
for those students who do not want to finish the homework on time. As for me, I
was a Chinese teacher for the last three years. If I used blogs to post the
assignment, I think there was no students come to my office, and explained to
me that he had left his homework at home
or the homework has been destroyed by the younger sister. At the same time, I would
like to use blog to explain some exposition, add some vivid pictures to
narration, ask my students to find resources to historic articles, encourage
students to write their own articles on blogs and so on.
What’s more. Because of its timeliness and easily be updated.
If there is an inspiration, students can catch it in time and use a telephone
or an ipad to post their ideas on their blog wherever they are. And also, it
provides a chance for the students to talk with their teachers and classmates
after class, so there will be enough interactions which will also help to strengthen
knowledge and expand practices. When comes to some puzzles, students can browse
blogs to reference a large number of literature before doing their own research.
It is obviously that videos bring us a lot of convenience,
it help us to broaden our horizon. We can just stay at home and know what had
happened around the world. When it put
into use in education, the students can benefit a lot. As we know, there are
not equal teaching resources in the national average. When the student wants to
take a class from an expert that is far away from his hometown, you will find
that using a blog is so fantastic. That’s what we called distance education. Another
example comes to my mind that trace back to my childhood, at that time when we
were taking a music class, the teacher always sat in the front of the
classroom, gave us a very simple
instrument performance. However, using blog in a music class is much different,
teachers can show the most famous player performing in a resplendent and magnificent
concerts to let the students feel the artistic charm in the classroom.
