Back to Thing #12

I've waited until the end of this journey to finish my post for Thing #12 because I wanted to explore more blogs not associated with our Library2Play group before commenting. Now I will share a couple that have been meaningful to me.

The first is Turning Pages, created by the media specialist at Cisco High School. This blog has inspired me because Cisco is a small, rural school district just like mine and in the same area of the state, and I like what she has done. It would make sense for me to use this blog as a model for one I might create for my high school. Even though I do not know the creator of this blog, it's very possible that we might meet sometime at a workshop being held at our service center. By reading and looking around on her blog, I have become convinced that I need to do something similar. I can see its usefulness for her school community.

The second blog I will comment on is Kathy Schrock's Kaffeklatsch. Most people involved in education are probably familiar with Kathy's name. She is a well-known expert in the fields of education and technology (and others, I'm sure). Her blog caught my attention first because of its name, but primarily because of Kathy's reputation as a source for all things related to these fields. Her blog is one way for me to keep up with technology in schools.
