Blogger & WSD Blogs

A blog is a tool where teachers can post information directly to the Internet.  Students, parents and others can access the blog once they've been given the web address.  Depending on the way the blog was set up, visitors can access old postings, leave comments, and navigate through resources.  A blog is a great way to get information out to the public, as well as keep students up to date with information from the class.

The technology team endorses both Blogger and the blogs set up and maintained by Weber School District.
