Educatorstechnology 8:39 PM Netiquette guidelines
Netiquette is the digital equivalent of the traditional etiquette. Netiquette (net + etiquette) is the code of proper conduct applied to communication on virtual online spaces.

Updated in February, 2022


Blogging is a digital activity with immense educational potential. You can easily integrate blogging into your teaching to both transform your professional practice and to open up new learning possibilities for your students.


There are various ways to use educational blogging in your instruction including to showcase students learning, to share extracurricular resources, to create a virtual hub for interacting with students remotely, to connect with parents and school community, to extend learning beyond classroom walls, to share assignments and important dates/events, among others.

You also need to set up custom blogging rubrics to help you assess students learning and track their overall progress.


There are several blogging platforms that you can use to create your classroom blog. Blogger by Google is among the best ones out there. In today's post, I am sharing with you this step by step guide to help you set up your classroom blog using Blogger platform.

External environmental factors also have their say in what is happening in the education sector.
