Wiki's, Blogs, and Websites: Why?

Last time we met, we investigated what a blog and a wiki are.
Today we will look at how to use blogs or wikis in our classrooms.
10 ways to use blogs to teach from edublogs.com

Differentiated Instruction

Group 1
If you are still not sure what a blog or wiki is and are confused about how to implement them in your classroom use this Webquest to remove your confusion and inspire your creativity.

Group 2
If you understand what blogs and wikis are but are looking for ways to incorporate them into your curriculum these links show how to use blogs. Investigate them and get an idea for a lesson plan that will implement blogs or wikis in your classroom.
Blogging 101
Learning from the read/write web
