ONLINE ASSIGNMENT
NAME : SREELEKSHMY.S.
SUBJECT : ENGLISH
REG. NO : 13369011
TOPIC : ENGLISH TEACHER BLOGS
INTRODUCTION
A Blog is a journal kept on the Internet. It is frequently updated. It contains
all sorts of information the writer wishes to express and share. It generally
consists of texts and images. The comments and feed back the visitors leave on
his blog can be read. A blog is also known as web log. People who create blog
are called bloggers. The act of creating blogs is called blogging.
English teaching blogs
list those teacher or teaching blogs which we think merit reading. The blogs
are all very different, but all interesting in one way or other. Some look at
the day today life of a teacher , others at teaching techniques , materials and
methods.
In English language the blog is playing a vital role in the
development of students.
TYPES OF ENGLISH
TEACHER BLOGS
Types of blogs used in English language teaching has outlined
three types as follows;
1.
Tutor blog
2.
Class blog
3.
Learner blog
The tutor blog is run by the teacher
of a class. The content of tutor blog can be limited to syllabus , course
information , homework, assignments etc. or the teacher may choose to write
about his or her life , sharing reflections about the local culture and
language to stimulate online and in class discussions. In this type of blogs
students are normally restricted to being able to write comments to the
teachers posts.
The class blog is a shared space with
teacher and students being able to write in the main area. It is best used as a
collaborative discussion space, an extra curricular extention of the classroom.
. Students can be encouraged to reflect in more depth in writing on themes , touched
upon
the class.Students are given a greater sense of freedom and involvement
than with the tutor blog.
The learner blog is a third type of
blog and it requires more time and effort from the teacher . It involves giving
each student an individual blog. The benefit of this is that this becomes the
students own personal online space. Students can be encouraged to write
frequently about what interest them and can post comments on other student’s
blogs.

Teachers
who use blog in their class consider it as a useful tool if it used
appropriately. One of the main advantages for the teacher of using authentic
texts is that it is possible to find interesting and relevant.
When syllabus is changed so many
problems occur .Here English teacher blogs help teachers to a great extend such
as for pooling resources and the like .As we are teaching English we are not
able to get more resources. If one teacher get one resource they can share it
with others and we can access from every corner of the world. Also English
teachers face so many difficulties for transacting content and they can ask
doubts through they needn’t know each other and can share ideas. English is a
subject with very limited resources when we access some blogs we get face to
face contact with others.
For example kuetef is a blog for
B.Ed teachers. Through this blog any B.Ed teacher can ask doubts share ideas
and resources etc. Some teachers put vocabulary and grammar games which are
very useful for teaching the content.
Rather than the above said
advantages, English teacher blogs help the teachers and students like providing
extra reading practices for students as online student learner journals that
can be read by their peers, guiding students to online resources increasing the
sense of community in a class , encouraging a process writing approach as well
as an online portfolio of students written works.
The use of blogs has become popular
in educational institutions including public schools and colleges. English
teacher blogs are effective for English teachers for sharing information and
tips among co-workers, pooling out resources and so on. On the whole, English
teacher blogs are definitely a great ocean of resources and support for all
English teachers.
