Blogging has become an important part of my teaching practice. Prior to blogging, I frequently neglected the reflection phase of learning. Now, blogging creates a space for me to reflect on what I am doing, what is working, and how I can continue to improve. I know many teachers are curious about blogging.

A Principal's Reflections

JULY 14, 2010

After nearly a year of using Twitter from an educational perspective I had begun to find and read blogs on a daily basis. As I became active on Twitter members of my PLN (Personal Learning Network) began to suggest that I start a blog. The most important factor that influenced me to begin a blog was my PLN. Why do I blog?

I never saw myself as a writer until I started blogging back in March 2010.

It all began with goal setting for the Google Teacher Academy for Administrators, and I haven’t looked back.
