How To Use Blogs in English Language Teaching

Welcome Teachers!!

By the end of this session you will – Have learnt a little about the history of blogging

• Have seen how student blogs, class blogs and blog aggregators work so well together
• Have had the opportunity to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using blogs
• Have looked at the ‘preferred’ content of blog posts
• Have used some materials that i have used and explore the discourse and genre of blog comments / posting
• Have received instruction on how to set up a blog

All the material will be given to you to (adapt if you want and) use with your students.  So you don’t need to write anything from the IWB or screen.

This is my blog.  Explore a little… You can leave me a comment if you like!!
