Practice with Blogs

August 28, 2007 · 4 Comments

Today I met with three of the new teachers at Croatan High to show them how to create a blog in WordPress. The goal was to use a blog as a Classroom Management Tool. We created pages for each subject and a subpage within each subject for homework, policies, and pacing guide.

The benefits include the ease of use and the beautiful templates, very professional looking. Also, no need to remember where or how to save information.

The drawbacks: once you navigate to another page or subpage, the only way to get back to the posts is through “Archives”. This is not very intuitive for the user. Also, we had difficulty changing the date of the posts.

Any thoughts? Comments and solutions are welcomed!
