The Comfort of Blogs
I spent time visiting the RE 6575 blogs this evening, when I should be going to bed and getting a good night's rest since I'm driving to Morganton to teach for an hour tomorrow morning, driving back to Boone, and then teaching 4 hours in the afternoon. However...
I really wanted to see what everyone had been writing on. Each blog increasingly is taking on the character and personality of its blogger. I look forward to the quotes and illustrations at one site. I eagerly anticipate the reflections on implementation and classroom teaching issues. I revel in the individual successes. I know this group better as individual learners and thinkers than any previous class I have taught, because they've shared so freely in their blogs.

And we (classmates, students) know each other in a deeper way too. This level of knowing would not have been possible/encouraged had we been limited to in-class discussions and conversations. I read our blogs as often as I can, and I smile, laugh, ponder, and cheer my colleagues on in all of the ups and downs of their daily work. Keeping our fingers on the pulses of our colleagues' work and thoughts has contributed to the 24/7 nature of this class, and it has been extremely beneficial to me.
