My initial thought is that blogging is truly a two way street. This reiterates that the Internet (Web 2.0) is a read/write relationship, not just read. Teacher and students can virtually interact with each other...amazing. We used the Internet while I was in high school, only for research, not once did we ever post our own material, and being allowed to use it for research was minimal. I feel that blogging is going to be similar to many other "advancements" in the past. If the technology is used, it can be great. I feel there is tremendous potential for blogging.
As I mentioned in my previous post, I have never blogged before this class. I don't really think I have ever read one, and if I did, it was not too prolific because I don't remember...
I have the same fears that most likely have, abuse of the blogosphere, inappropriate content, etc. but I also realize that things of such nature can't prohibit the use of something so awesome. I do not mind sharing my thoughts publicly on a blog.
