How Educational Leaders Can Use Blogs

Blogs are a powerful data collection tool. Educational leaders can use blogs to reflect and evaluate their own practices and elicit feedback from their peers. Blogging is a form of professional development for educators. They provide a forum for collaboration on effective strategies, techniques, and plans for improvement. Blogs bring a variety of ideas and beliefs together that would otherwise never meet. Educators interested in refining and revising their way of thinking about teaching and learning find blogs an essential tool.
