Why Blog?

Blogging is an excellent tool for educational researchers for a number of reasons. Unlike traditional websites, blogging offers the opportunity to communicate with colleagues on a whole new level. In addition to sharing information or knowledge, a blog allows you to quickly get feedback from others and engage in reflective discourse with those that share your interests and concerns. Using a blog eliminates geographic barriers and promotes individuals from all over the world to work collaboratively rather than in isolation. Finally, since a blog can easily be added to an RSS feed, you immediately have access to new information once it is posted without constantly checking a website.
