In this blog, you can learn from a teacher perspective on how to use blogs in your classroom. It takes you step by step on setting up and what blogs are used for. It even mentions some topics students could blog about on their own. This would be important to use in the classroom because it would make learning more enjoyable while developing the student's typing and English. Some examples we could blog about would be what was happening in politics at the moment and expressing the opinions of the students or keeping records of an ongoing science project.
