Yesterday night was a blast! We had a wonderful time with the Women of the
Web 2.0 Cheryl, Vicky, Sharon and Jen in different parts of the US and
Canada in an open conversation about blogging.
The main topics we addressed were:
- The Women of the Web2.0 blogging stories
- Making mistakes
- The concept of teacherpreneurs
- Taking risks in blogging
- Finding a blogger's tone and voice
- Commenting
- Favorite blogging tools (Vicky's great tips!)
- Feedback
- Tagging and Technorati
- The Writingmatrix (Vance Stevens and team's concept)
- Networking
- Mystery Guest activity
- Blogging strategies in the classroom
- The "Important person" factor (Sharon Peters talks about the
importance of a true audience for students' motivation and willingness to
take a step ahead in their writing)
