A reminder from Linus about how important personal recognition can be
posted in blogs |This 95 second YouTube video, “charlie brown teacher,” is a montage of school scenes from Peanuts cartoons. Among other things, it’s a reminder of how important it is for teachers to recognize students individually.
Our students deserve to be and should be recognized individually for their ideas, their contributions, their expertise and their work inside and outside the classroom. Social media technologies which permit students to share their voices, to be empowered with agency to express ideas and share opinions, to publish their work for a broader audience outside the boundaries of the traditional classroom are vital. Check out the list of classroom blogs from around the world on the “Support Blogging” wiki, and add your classroom’s blog if it’s not already listed.
