Before you begin, you have, I hope, been thinking about the question I posted previously: What is a blog and how is it different from a discussion prompt? A blog is a personal, thoughtful, critical consideration of a topic or question. A thoughtful, credible blog is not just opinion. The ideas in a thoughtful, credible blog clearly show the writer's position on a topic or question, but the person isn't ranting or shooting from the hip. The thoughtful blogger demonstrates knowledge about a subject and backs up what he or she says with some support from credible sources and a logical presentation of ideas. There is no doubt that there are some "off the wall" "shoot from the hip" crazy blogs out there. However, that's not what this blog is about. This blog is about demonstrating thoughtful, critical analysis of a topic that shows developing insight into the uses, issues, value, and dangers of technology in educational settings. So this is week one. Below is the topic.
Visit http://www.iste.org/STANDARDS
ISTE Standards and blog about the ISTE standards. Make the blog entry substantive, thoughtful, credible, and in keeping with the guidelines above. Do not respond to my post, add a NEW POST of your own. LEt me know if you have questions.
