Blogs are completely new to me, and I haven't had much experience with them or truly know the purpose of blogging. In my researching to learn more about Blogs I come to find that a blog is simply a web page that is written in an informal or conversational manner. The purpose of a blog is to provide information on a person's perspective on a specific topic or to answer questions on a specific subject. I also found that there can be pros and cons to blogging as well.

There are so many technology tools out there for students to use to create and present their learning in the classroom. These tools are vastly different from each other and each one has its own pros and cons. In my research I found three main tools that I really liked and are great for students to use to create. First, I played around with Procreate which is an online website that allows students to bring their creations to life by allowing them to create expressive sketches, paintings, illustrations, and even animations. I really liked this tool however it does have many limitations when thinking about associating it with educational purposes. Secondly, I played with an App which allows students to create stunning visuals for a very wide range of purposes. I feel like students could really use this app to help them with book reports and creating presentations for their classroom assignments. This app I enjoyed more because it seemed more multipurpose. Last, I played around with an online resource called Chatter Pix which is a fun, creative app that allows students to create projects that talk to present their work for them. This could be a great tool to use with children in the classroom for many different reasons. All three of these online resources would be great tools to have in your classroom. I want to dive more into the Chatter Pix resource and explain a little of why I liked this one over the others.

Exploring the many tools there are used to create a portfolio seemed endless. There are so many different tools that can be used to create an e portfolio. I played around with a few of them and want to share my thoughts on three specific tools and how they could be beneficial for you in creating your very own portfolio. I played around with Wikis, Google Sites, and Microsoft Office. Each one of these tools has its own way of letting its users to create and gather information in order to share that in a portfolio. I believe that my using these educational technology tools to create a e portfolio with your students you can use them in a better fashion than any assessment every could. These portfolios can show the growth in each student over the school year. It can allow students to then reflect on their own learning as well as their peers. This helps your students be more involved in their own learning. I want to share in more depth a little more about each of these tools in order to share how they could help you in creating your portfolio.
