United States Class blog summary


For this first blog of this week I looked up www.gaggle.net. Gaggle is a website for students and teachers to use for blogging that is safe, community based, and filtered for inapporpriate conduct. Students and Teachers, together from the same school, can get Gaggle accounts and post blogs just like being in a regular online class. Sign-up is made easy for both teachers and students, with easy to read and follow instructions listed on the homepage of the website. Also from the homepage, you can search for other blogs, and look up blogs from students and teachers in different countries. Gaggle is trying to fast forward students and teachers into the future, where online classes will be the new "in thing" and not something they know nothing about. Here is a link to the website. click here to go to the gaggle website. Here is a picture of Michael Jason,a student which uses this blog. This picture is from how profile, much like the profiles we have here on our blogs.
