Blogging
Social Literacy Example:
“Whether you call it metacognition, reflection, or thinking about our thinking, new learning requires that we reflect.”
In our class, the Blog is used as an online learning journal to write about their learning and publish work to an authentic audience. It is a chronologically record of their learning throughout the semester. Students also share blog posts or media creations to the whole class Google+ Community where they comment and provide feedback. The Blog is a place for publishing individual student learning and G+ Community contains the class collective works and discussions.
Examples:
