How Educational Leaders Might Use Blogs
Blogs allow educational leaders to make collections of data a part of their administrative practice, and to share ideas and insight with colleagues or other administrators instantly. This online form of journaling can be used as a tool for reflection and inquiry as they happen simultaneously. Through the use of blogs educational leaders ar able to: link to other blogs, comment on blogs or receive feedback from others, follow blogs of interest, and gain new insight from reading older posts or from others who comment on their blog. Blogs provide immediate publishing capabilities and an archive of previous resources and experiences that allow diverse interactions amongst users. Blogs are an innovative networking tool for educational leaders.

I have found that there are a ton of ways to use blogs and get students involved. At my previous position (teaching band) I wanted to show the students different styles of music. I set up a blog, posted different styles of music, and then they were required to go and listen and comment of the music. Their comments included what instruments they heard, and they were to describe why or why not they liked the music.
