Answers to Skype Questions

^{Do you think students should text in class?}

^{I absolutely think that students should be allowed to text message in class.  Most students in public schools today have some form or cellular phone, so a very high percentage of students would be extremely familiar with texting.  That being said, I would allow my students to text answers to me online.  They could use their phones to send confidential answers via text message.  Now, I would not allow my students to text their friends to talk about a basketball game or other non-education related subjects, but I would love for my students to be able to text answers and use their phones for school work.}

^{If you could change one thing about blogging, what would it be?}

^{I had never blogged prior to this course, so I was very new to it at the beginning of the class.  Now that I've done it several times, I feel more familiar and confident with how it works.  If there was one thing that I would change about blogging, I would like to see it become more popular.  Many more people would use blogging if it were more like Facebook.  If more of someone’s friends were blogging, then more and more people would be likely to create their own blogs.}
