Task

Create a class blog

Take appropriate precautions for Internet safety, but a class blog can be a great way to integrate technology in the classroom and develop student knowledge. Some teachers use blogs to drive outside-of-class discussion – particularly helpful for AP/IB students who are motivated but short on class time.

Process

Students need to work together to create a blog on a topic they are studying. They will need to correct each other’s work and collaborate in order to make it a success.
The blog guides students to search the Internet for specific information. For example, students are asked to serve as curators of a museum on a particular topic. They must search the Internet to determine what artifacts belong in their museum and explain their choices.
