So the question is are blogs beneficial or are they just a waste of time? I for one happen to think blogs do have some advantages. Blogs are a great way for people to communicate and stay updated on things in the environment around them. As far as education goes blogs are superb. For instance, if a student was sick and couldent make class they can follow the blog the teacher posted and they could still do their assignment without missing out. However, some may argue that blogs are a waste of time. I can see where some blogs are useless, but as far as the classroom scene is concerned it is a great tool on staying updated and filled in. Blogs also stretch the minds of some to think outside the box and use their own thoughts and opinions to respond. If it were my class i definantly would post blogs a few times a month for my students to stay updated and use their minds to think about whats going on around them. Overall i think that blogs can be very useful.
