We were provided with two websites on Day 4 to visit and read the content of each website.


The first website is about the blogging across the curriculum. It provides information about blogging tools and different softwares used for blogging. It provides guidlines on how to blog and different projects related to blogging.

The second website is about journal and diary enteries for 2003 to 2011.  It tells about the projects and presentations. 
As a Science teacher, I found the blogs very effective as I can find many ideas and new researches and I can use these to improve my teaching.
One important point which I would like to add is that I found blogging a vey vast field as I could not get a chance to go through each blog and related topics within one week but I will keep on visiting different blogs and will add on my reflections after each new experience in future and will try to improve teaching with the world of blogging.

As Day 3 homework, I found some good websites for considering e-safety in lesson planning.

I have many experiences of scientific investigations throughout my teaching. In e-foundation, I learnt to use technology in teaching. Threre are blogs to share information with students as well as with other people. There are different blogs shared with us on Day 4 which will help me to explore updated information and new researches in the world of Science. I might find information about every topic related to Science within few minutes! This is amazing!!!
