Educational Leaders as Bloggers

As an educator at secondary level, I know sometimes I find myself in isolation from others in my content area. I can only imagine how isolated principals and other educational leaders find themselves due to the fact that they are the only person in that position on the campus or within the district. Blogs would be a great resource for these leaders to collaborate with other professionals dealing with the same issues they are. It could serve as a resource for action research. It's a way to gain feedback on the inquiry you are working through and to provide advice to others that are dealing with a similar inquiry you have solved. It can also be a place to find additional resources for relevant literature to read or possible strategies to try. Basically, it is a tool that allows for collaboration.

  1. I agree that blogging allows for collaboration. At times, many edcuational leaders are isolated and this provides a medium of gaining feedback and keeping the professional environment.
