Blogging - Hicks Chapter 2

In Chapter 2 Hicks talked about the basics of blogging.  I liked that he pointed out that first it is important to think about how and why teachers want students to engage in digital writing. Using blogs allow teachers to have easy access as well as able to update and edit accordingly.
Teachers can use blogs to post information about the classroom such as announcements or assignments or it can be used to as a reponse prompt for students.
