Analysing the blog with the teachers who asses my research project,they realized that the blog did not look like a blog but like a repository of activities.For that reason,we began to discuss the way I could promote the development of a blog without forgetting the activities that were designed wth the objective of reinforcing and clarifing important aspects for students to write in English.
We agreed that it would be crucial that students had a space to write in English in a free way talking about things they are interested in according to the checklist they answered and real life in general,but we did not agree with the way this space would be designed in kidblog.Some ideas were that students could interact on their group´s page, on the teacher´s page and on each student´s page.Although we discussed that three pages for students to write would be too much.That is why,the teachers recommended me to visit other blogs and ask the technology teacher at the university to have more ideas about how to really promote the use of a blog that improves and fosters students´wrting skill.I asked the teacher Claudia Acero and she told me that it woul be very important that students tested the entries in order to know if they understand them.
Esperanza, have you had any other thoughts on this topic? You seemed very excited about this possibility of turning your work into a true blog. Any ideas? Have the students seen the blog? What do they think?
