In 1999 blogging began in San Francisco when 3 young dot.comers stretched their minds to think of new ways to communicate and connect with people. Your challenge in this point of history is to think of ways to use a blog to enhance your high school history classroom.
You might create a blog to:
-- expand student access to relevant historical material by incorporating links to websites
-- conduct a moderated discussion forum
-- post in-depth information about historical figures you're currently studying
-- post homework for absent students
Here are some blogs created by history teachers that may offer inspiration to you:
A history teacher chronicles his travels through the ancient and not so ancient cultures of Egypt, Greece, and Rome.
A History Teacher uses technology to enrich his classroom.
Speaking of History........
