What is a Blog?

Activity 1: What is a blog? (Jigsaw) - Teachers' create own definition/explanation


  • Process:
    • Step 1 - In your groups (works best if you teach different grade levels or subjects) and have each teacher select a different resource (see list below)
    • Step 2 - Individually, write bullet notes summarizing what their resource tells them about blogs
      • Option 1 - good, old fashioned index cards
      • Option 2 - any text program
    • Step 3 - As a group, using the notes you each gathered while exploring your resource, draft an explanation of what a "blog" is for a parent audience
      • As a comment/reply to this blog post (best option for modeling the use of a blog while learning about blogs)
    • Step 4 - Affordances/Constraints Chart for you to add notes to as they work on other parts of the workshop and give them a few minutes to brainstorm affordances/constraints
    • Resources
