Review of a counclers blog

After going over a counclers point of view in their blog I saw how versitile it can be for teachers and students.  It can be a great to connect to all of your students at once, and give them information that they may have missed in the classroom.  Its a great way to get students to collaborate with each other and make sure they all are participating in some way.  Placing assignments and other important notices on the blog can also give a heads up to students about missed work, or if they may need to bring something to class.  Having the blog also keeps down the need for so much paper and the chance that the students may lose important notes and memos they are sent home with.  Or if they do lose them they can have easy access to a new copy if need be.
