Over the Summer I had the opportunity to meet with a group of teachers for lunch. As we were conversing I shared a bit about where my passions lie and what type of things I see becoming valuable among the technology world, especially within the educational system. I shared with them my personal relationship with Blogging and how important it is for us to really use what we have available to us. I was shocked when they immediately questioned my ideas and narrow-mindedly suggested this entire idea to be pointless. Was I witnessing a gap in generations? I was extremely shocked and could not believe how strongly they felt about it...had they no idea?
I'm proud to say I didn't let this situation discourage me. I've chosen to take it as a suggestion to myself to keep up with technology because it is constantly changing. For this reason, I blog!
I'm including this video that I saw on Jane's site because I feel it will help prove my point:
Here is a link to some serious and "true" suggestions, and some rather biased and opinnionated beliefs as to why we should and should not blog:
