This past week we looked at information and talked about blogs, RSS and nings. After class and during the week after reading the assigned chapters I have come to the conclusion that I need more information and to become comfortable about using the internet and its free sources to use blogs. I believe that I may be able to use a blog in my classroom, yet have to figure out a way that this will be kosher for parents, students, school board, and administration. I am also still confused on RSS, what they are, because at the moment they sound like blogs that other individuals have written their opinion which may or may not be fact. It is the part where information may not be fact that concerns me.
You might want to look at What is RSS - see if this resource explains it better.
Information sharing and doing something different is always hard - especially starting. You probably have forgotten things you have done started before, because they are part of your daily routine. But at one time they were difficult and hard, since they were new. Give it a start and see where it grows.
