Colleges, Students, Webspace, Blogging - Future of Teaching-Learning

Colleges world over are asking their students to blog for a variety of purposes. Studies have been carried out to analyze the best ways to engage students in blogging.

Most colleges have a website of their own. They can have blogs of students attached to their websites.

Here is a simple plan based on the course contents:

The students can be divided into groups with one student in-charge of one module. Each student takes up a specific topic and creates a blog on it. All blogs are tagged with the college name, the course name, the module name, the topic and other related keywords.

The students can also be asked to work on one more blog as per their interests and hobbies. This way each student is engaged in two blogs one based on subject specialization another based on his personal interests and preferences.

These blogs are passed on to the next year students for enhancements, updating and further content development.
