GRAPHIC DESIGN: BLOGS ARE BETTER

Why Blogs are useful in the classroom.

WHY I USE A BLOG

• It is an up to date and relevant database of classroom activities.

• These activities include : homework assignments, classroom projects,

tutorials, peer reviews, and reference websites.

It encourages students to use technology in a constructive way.

It allows parents to see the students assignments, class work,

grades, and final projects.

Students can use the blog as a digital portfolio, that they can use

for college and future job opportunities.
