Blogger

Blogger is a tool that allows many people to share their blogs about any topic they want to share. It is free to use. In the case of language teaching, it is becoming useful for teachers to share their tips. Writing and Reading are two skills that can be reinforced through the use of blogger.

Types of Activities using Blogger

1. A teacher can prepare a blog within relevant information about any topic and share it with the students during the class.

2. Students may work on a blog as a way to show their knowledge about what they have learned during the class and share with their professor and classmates.

3. Teacher may also use Blogger to share their experiences or tips with other teachers by creating blogs in which they provide information about it.

Tips about Blogger

1. Blogger is free. It just requires to have an account in it.

2. Blogger is also available in the android store. Students and teachers can have it in their cellphones.

3. Using Blogger for teaching is more interactive and interesting if it is used during the class in a laboratory that provides the necessary tools for it.

As a final point, Blogger is more for training the students' reading and writing micro and macroskills. I consider it can be used just in specific stages of the lesson plan (presentation, post-activity, and consolidation) and also for working at home as a tool for homework.
