For all of our up and coming tech users here at Everlab.
Blogging is like a journal, where you enter thoughts, knowledge and experiences. There are may types of Blog service providers, like:
Blogger
Word Press
Schoolloop Blog in our Webpage.
etc.
The Blog entry is saved and tagged with the date of entry and the best part is that people can respond to what you have written by leaving a comment. This would be specially useful for teachers when the want to take the temperature of a class on a particular idea or issue. The teacher could post a stance on the main blog entry and each student could then enter their response our knowledge about the lesson/issue.
The teacher can then read each student's comment and gauge where the student stands. What an easy way to assess knowledge before any lesson or unit is taught and plan accordingly.
You could conduct a mid-lesson blog knowledge comprehension assessment and one at the end.
This is just one small idea on how to implement blogs in the classroom. If you Google the topic you will find many more ways in which other teachers are using blogs in the classroom.
Good Blogging!
