It would be cool if we could receive renewal credits for participating in these.
Yes. I think schools should figure out ways to grant professional development credits for participating in conversations in the edublogosphere. If schools were to use some sort of professional portfolio system that included teacher reflections, I think this could become possible. Unfortunately many in schools “measure learning” with seat time rather than artifacts which can more authentically reflect actual learning. Seat time is a very entrenched paradigm for assessment that needs to change.
