Thank you to everyone who supported my Blog. Here are some of your positive comments:
…I think it allows teachers to find good examples of different things as well as allow students to search for things…
…I feel when used correctly can have a strong impact on either how a student obtains information about a topic they are learning about or how they show what they have learned through a video clip…
…a great source to find out about information that might not have otherwise been available…
…I love Teacher Tube and the video link about Thailand that you provided…
…very useful to both parents and administrators…
…Technology is a great example of how schools are incorporating the interests of students and connecting it to whats going on in the school…
…technology will change how education is delivered…
Blogging can be a community of colleagues or friends to get together and exchange ideas. Where you can share your videos and photos, writings stories about living and culture..
Teachers can utilize with students to develop writing, share ideas and reflect on work being done in the classroom. Teachers can start a Blog for providing communication to students, parents, or other teachers. It can help with homework or other assignments. Parents can see and comment on what their children are working on, or ask questions.
In Thailand Blogging is very popular:

I really like the idea of parents logging on and seeing their kids work. When we did the website review, I thought this was one of the best features on a school website and I also like your idea about parents actually joining in on the Blog.
I would like to see more student involvement on our website. Perhaps we can set up a Blog where they can post work for their parent?

I always visited your blog but I commented them sometimes. Your information can fulfill my knowledge about Blog through video, website and useful information. I agree with you about the advantages of Blog. Our group chose Blog for our collaboration project as a tool for facilitating learning. The result revealed that Blog can develop the students' creative and critical thinking and the students and parents satisfied to Blog.
Thank you for providing a very interesting blog this semester! You brought up many good ideas in your reflection post, two that stood out the most to me are; making a community among colleagues where everyone can share ideas and using blogs to make students excited/engaged about writing. These are two great aspects of blogging that I plan to continue after this course is done.
I agree with you both that Blog can improve student motivation and writing. We should think about how we can add this to our teaching.
Brother Pisutr, these are great ideas for working with blogs. I have enjoyed reading yours this semester- thank you for your contributions!
