Sommario/riassunto

Blogging is an important tool for educators' professional learning and growth. It is a way to develop writing skills, make connections, and get formative feedback on ideas. Blogging takes the 140 characters of Twitter and develops the sound byte into reflective depth for formative learning. In addition, blogging is being used as a marketing tool by many schools, with teachers being required to blog about their classrooms.
