Today the CollabLab welcomes guest blogger Katie D., a senior at Elk Grove HS. Her work, along with the work of her classmates, can be found through the hashtag #EGLTS
This year I started a blog for my leadership class to blog about various
topics we learn in class such as growth and service as well as
different experiences I have had. At first, I didn't really understand
why I was doing it or what purpose it had, but as I kept blogging, I
have found it to be a unique resource to use as a student. For one, it
is easier to share with my teacher and other students different ideas I
have and reflections on what we do in class because anyone can have easy
access to view my blog rather than just turning in papers that no one
gets to see. This ability to share our opinions through blogging helps a
lot when we have to collaborate for different projects and lessons.
Along with that people outside of just our class can see what we blog
including other teachers and administrators who can then see what we are
learning about and what we do to branch ideas off and feel more
connected as a school. My blog even got republished by a website, which
shows just how far our thoughts can go on the internet and can
influence others. I've learned a lot since starting my blog, and I
encourage other students to try it out.
