Trotter's Blog

Friday, September 01, 2006

Tuesday was very informational and inspirational. I really enjoyed conversing with Mr. Hampshire regarding bolgging about Greek Mythology and Western Civ. The blog(s) could allow for students to dialogue about Greek Mythology, politics, culture, etc... Also, student design or content suggestions addressing the blog(s) could empower them to invest in class. One small goal is to free the "reticent voice." We will try to set a target blog date so that we establish purpose and value for the dialoguing students.

It would also be an interesting look to see where they see Greek connections in society today. Good luck and have fun. Give the kids a say in what they want the blog to be about. Maybe they determine the posts? Just some thoughts

I think freeing the reticent voice can be a valuable function for the blog. I've already noticed a couple of my sophomore students who are virtually silent in class but quite eloquent on the blog. I'm hoping to get the others in class to see their voices.
