My Google Reader Experience
So I'm new to the whole Google Reader thing but already I've found that it's a great way to stay in touch with what other people are saying about education and technology. I like how Google Reader sets up everything so it's really easy to see the new posts from your different feeds - sometimes I feel a little overwhelmed trying to keep up with different people's blogs and suggestions (even though I'm sure they're great) and I like how Google Reader organizes it and makes it a little more accessible. So far I'm connected with the Edu-Blogger (Brother West's blog), Web-logged, and two feeds about using technology in an English classroom (already I've gotten some good tips about using webcams or podcasts in class projects). I'm also connected to my group members' blogs will make it easier to see what things they discover. I'm excited to get better at using Google Reader because I think one of the greatest resources we have as teachers is other teachers' ideas, suggestions, comments, etc.

When you say the Edu-blogger is that my old one? You might check the dates on the posts. I used to have a blog like that, but I don't post anything there anymore. I just didn't want you to think I was a bad example when you didn't see anything new on that old blog all semester!
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, looks good! I just need to see a screenshot of the blogs you found so I can tell you got them into your Google reader correctly, and then post the ones you found here on your blog for your group members (and me) to see so we can check them out too.
