ten blogs that teach you something you should read
The ranking of any blog is based on four things:
Social reach is found by adding up the number of times the last 10 blog posts were shared on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and the main domain of the blog.
Activity: How often and how many blog posts there are.
The number of links that lead to a blog shows how important it is.
Teach Score: This score looks at how the blog is put together as a whole, how useful the topics are, and how media is used.
Teach.com will rank and list any blog that someone thinks is educational or helpful, even if you don't write on it or follow it (they currently have 638 blogs listed). The top ten education blogs to follow, according to Teach100, are listed below, along with a short summary of each blog's articles.
1) In Higher Education
This page has a lot of useful information for high school students, especially those who are looking for work. They have many departments, such as Admissions, Books, Technology, Career Advice, Diversity, and more. They do more research and offer a wide range of webinars related to higher education. For their most recent study, Federal Accountability and Financial Pressure, they talked to the heads of colleges and universities.
The second place goes to The Learning Network.
The New York Times is in charge of this blog. The main people they write for are teachers, students, and parents who want to get ideas for lessons from the NYT. The "Text to Text" section can be used as a lesson plan for American history, civics, current events, and social studies classes.
Students who are at least 13 years old can comment on stories in the Student Opinion section.
• Edutopia.
Edutopia is run by the George Lucas Educational Foundation. The blog is mostly for teachers and students in grades K–12. It "works with researchers, teachers, and curriculum experts" to develop project-based learning and make educational materials that help students learn and keep them interested.
Recent papers have had titles like "Teaching K-8 Financial Literacy: A Case Study" and "How to Help Adolescents Online Evaluation."
Classroom 2.0 (fourth)
This blog is mostly about how to use web 2.0 tools and social media in the classroom. It helps teachers connect with each other and share ideas about how to use online resources in the classroom. This site has more to offer than just content. There are a lot of educational DVDs out there, and you can talk to groups at different schools. They have more than 78,000 members in 199 countries, so they have a lot of different ideas about education.
Fifth) School
This blog is mostly about how technology can help schools. They give teachers helpful tips on how to use technology in the classroom, such as a guide to technology and learning for teachers and reviews of the best laptops, tablets, and educational software. In books like "15 Tips for Facilitating Online Discussion," they also explain how to make good online courses and what the best ways are to learn online.
Six. TeacherTube
Teachers can connect with other teachers in this section by sharing recordings of their classroom lessons. In this setting, teachers of all kinds, even those who teach from home, can learn from what their peers know. There are graphics, movies, and audio recordings you can use to make your course even better. You can also join a number of groups that focus on different things.
A big part of TeacherTube is the community of teachers who teach and learn from each other.
: MindShift
Mindshift is a different tech blog, and many of its posts use statistics and information from academic papers. It has a section on games and education that talks about how apps are changing how basic skills and knowledge are taught to young children through technology. Recent articles like "Beyond Angry Birds," "Five Apps That Test Your Physical Skills," and "How Parents Think "Educational" Screen Time Affects Learning" all touch on these topics.
The use of technology and mobile learning in the classroom (8)
The main topics of this blog are apps and mobile devices that teachers can use in the classroom, as well as tips on how to use them well. There are presentations for teachers on topics like "Free Math Resources, Lesson Plans, and Games" and "Free Educational Android Apps for Teachers."
As the way students study outside of the classroom changes, teachers and schools of higher learning need to know how to effectively use mobile devices in lesson planning and curriculum.
The ninth TechThought
All teachers who want to improve their digital connections should read this cutting-edge blog. There are great parts about using technology to test kids, the best ways to use iPads in the classroom, how to use Twitter hashtags, and studies about how kids' thinking styles and neuroscience affect how they learn.
"15 Literacy Apps to Create Books on the iPad" and "50 Top Sources of Free eLearning Courses" are two of the most read articles on the site.
Homeroom, number ten
Teach100 says that the blog of the U.S. Department of Education is the tenth best blog. The blog's main goal is to get people to talk about issues in American education. Also, they give people in the audience a chance to comment, make suggestions for changes, and give feedback on the topics discussed. Some of the most recent topics were "Championing International Education Priorities" and a debate about how the Department of Education should be more open to public feedback and provide more open data.
This is a great resource for anyone who works in the education field. It's a place where they can stay up-to-date on business issues and share what they know.
