Tim‘s influence remains at Buckman Elementary where Helen Nolan the principal is pushing the envelope with Web logs as communication tools. I love this: “And, all teachers are expected to add at least one page of content to the school weblog.
Teachers and other staff members are using the weblog in different ways. The librarian, for example, has posted a suggested reading list and book reviews for students. A first-grade teacher showcases student writing with an “authors’ corner.” Another teacher has students perform daily journal writing on the weblog, while in a science class, students post mealworm observations and photos. Student artwork also appears in a colorful online gallery.
All cool ideas, and all making me really psyched to start implementing pages for people.
