Educational Blogs

Thought I'd take a minute to record my thoughts on some of the educational blogs I am reading at the minute.


http://education.change.org/ is a US site written by a collaboration of educators looking to change the systems of education.

http://weblogg-ed.com/ is a very well written site concerning the impact of technology on learning across the world.

http://chrisyaktheteacher.blogspot.com/ takes the angle that technology is not having the impact that it could have in the classroom and we are wasting an opportunity to transform the way we educate.

http://edubuzz.org/blogs/donsblog/ is written by a Scottish director of education and encompasses teaching and learning plus leadership and cultural change.

http://creativetallis.blogspot.com/ is the site of a school in London and their student and teacher group focussed on promoting creative learning.

http://blog.ted.com/ is the blog of the TED 'ideas worth spreading' site. This was the site that I first saw Sir Ken Robinson's talk on creativity. It is about more than education - but is fantastic and inspirational.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/mortarboard UK education news and opinion from a liberal perspective.

http://teachingbattleground.wordpress.com/ a site that I almost totally disagree with evrything said, but 'could' be representative of views that others hold and therefore provides an interesting perspective.

http://olliebray.typepad.com/olliebraycom/ thoughts on school leadership, and teaching and learning with new technologies from a Scottish deputy Head Teacher.

http://heyjude.wordpress.com/ an unconventional view from an Australian librarian about learning in an online world.

Happy reading!
