Activity #1

Before describing the two other kinds of blogs mentioned in my introduction, the Simulation/PBL Blog and the Game Based Learning Blog, I'm now I'd now like to ask a question of all of you in attendance today.

That question  . . . if you were to have your students create a blog . . .

• What class and grade would your create this blog for?
• What would be the title of this blog?

To get the ball rolling, here's something for you to think about. Prior to today's presentation, I asked several local high school science (Physics and Chemistry) teachers this very same question and they came up with:

• The Chernobyl Blog
• The Challenger Disaster Blog
• The Deepwater Horizon, Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill Blog
• The Search for Life on Mars Blog
• The Sputnik to Apollo 11 Blog
• The Genetically Modified Organisms Blog
• The Manhattan Project Blog
