Learning is a continuous process. You only stop learning
when you decide to stop. And as we students can always hear, learning is not
confined in the four corners of the classroom.
The greatest challenge for an educator is to think of ways
by how learning can be achieved without having to sacrifice the enjoyment or
the interests of his/her students. Many techniques have been employed just to
make sure that learning will take place among students. Live demonstrations,
interactive games, video presentations are only some of the techniques employed
by educators to add spice into learning.
With the advent of technology, learning techniques must keep
its pace with technology or else, it will be left behind. One way by which
learning has adapted in modern times is by educational blogging or edublogging.
Students now a day face the computer more often than books. Internet
from a want now became a need. In order to enforce learning while students are
browsing the net, edublogging has been employed by educators. But edublogging
is not only for teachers, it can also be employed by students like us.
You cannot discover everything on your own, you need the
help of others. This became evident in our blog posts. As a student, I learn
from what I research and post but at the same time, I learn from the posts of
my fellow students. Learning is indeed a cooperative process. Edublogging paved
the way for us to share our knowledge.

Edublogging also triggered the literary capabilities of the
students. At first they were afraid to post because they think they do not know
how to write beautiful articles. But eventually, they realized that they have
that talent for writing.
Edublogging also taught us to be careful on what we post,
especially if we are using the words of other people. We should never ever ever
forget to cite our references when we blog.
All in all, edublogging is a new, fun and exciting way to
make students learn and the same time make them enjoy what they are doing.
I am proud that once in my life I created an Educational
Blog which might have been helpful to other students but this would not be
possible if not for a great mentor who never gets tired of looking after us.

Mr. Class President, I like your last sentence. lol. Thanks for appreciating and recognizing my goal in this edublogging activity.
ReplyDeleteAs I keep saying, this could be one of the credentials you could include in your resume for work. It shows you've done some research and meta analysis.
Amazing post too; you were able to shift beautifully from the vital information to the informal stuff. Congrats. K.I.U.
