Blog Assignment Due Next Week (11/18)

The competition for the best 2007 Blogs is currently underway.

To complete this assignment, do the following:
Go to the Education category of the nominees for Best 2007 Blog. The link to the page which has links to the ten blogs nominated for the top prize can be found at the end of this assignment. Go to one of the ten blogs. The one you are to go to is determined by the month in which you were born. Count down until you reach the nominee that matches your birth month. For example, if you were born in June, you would click on the 6th blog in the list. October would be the 10th month in the list (the last one on the list). And so on. If you were born in November, go to the first blog on the list. If you were born in December, go to the last month in the list.
1. Read some of the blog and skim the entire blog enough so that you are able to:
a) write a brief description of the contents and approach of the blog
b) identify who in the education world might find this blog useful
c) find one important idea in the blog and comment on it
d) how good or useful do you think this blog is
e) Include the name of the blog you visited and a link to it.
