Why Blog?

I hadn't read any of my RSS feeds in a couple of days and now that I have it may have been better if I left them unread. Scott Mcleod on Dangerously Irrelevant started it with his Dear John post that seemed to be picked up by other bloggers that I read. It forced me to think about why I blog knowing that there are very, very few people in the blogosphere who actually read it.

Why do I blog? When I started, it was my attempt to be a role model for others in our district. To demonstrate for them that if someone with my skill level could do it anyone could. It wasn't long, however, before I realized it had become more important to me. I enjoy the opportunity to share what I read that I believe can be helpful to or stimulate reflection with others in our system. I also find it energizing to share my own thinking as it has helped me on more than one occasion to refine my thinking. So Scott, I don't care about my word count or how many read it, I am going to continue. I am not on the inside with you at the cocktail party and I don't need to be. I don't blog often, but I enjoy it when I do.

Before I close, I want to share this post on cool cat teacher blog that lead me again to the Horizon Project and the keynote by Dan Tapscott author of Wikinomics. It is a short video sharing the need for changes in pedagogy. This is a project with students that you can join, share with, and learn from. Check out the wiki.
