Throughout our history, we have asked important questions, such as, "why is there air?" "How many people does it take to change a light bulb?" and "Did the chicken or the egg come first?" One age old question that teachers have asked is, "should I create a class website or a class blog?" In this podcast episode I help to answer this age old question by discussing when you might want a blog or a website. I also discuss alternatives to both approaches and some of the tools that teachers use to create websites, blogs, online photo albums and text/email message blasters. Here are some of the tools I mention in this episode: Website creation tools: Weebly Wix Google Sites Blog creation tools: Blogger.com Kidblog.org Online photo albums: iCloud Picasa Web Albums General Classroom Management (with message/blog sharing): Class Dojo Text/Email Message Blaster: Remind.com
