Blog For Class

This is my first blog for my Tech class. I have never blogged before, and I think I need some time to get used to it.  I am learning a lot of useful things in this class, and I wonder how a blog will fit into my classroom.  When we all become teachers, I wonder how blogging will become a part of it. I guess it is a great way to keep track of your personal thoughts, but I also think a journal is good for that as well. I am not much of a journal person, so this will definitely be a change for me. I am excited about our group assignments for the final project. It is always nice to be able to meet people who have an appreciation of the arts, but are not necessarily in your discipline.  I think all of our ideas pooled together will be a great project. We had a great opening discussion about what are some topics we can work on for our project. We thought we could focus on story telling as an umbrellas topic because dance, music, and theatre are all great ways to tell a story.  We also have a  very culturally diverse group, and thought it would be interesting to investigate some stories in other cultures and use our artistic disciplines to present those stories. There is much more discussion to take place, but I think it is going to be a very interesting process.  I am sure I will be using this blog to document that process!
