// There are a multitude of emerging technologies surfacing each and every day. The blog is an emerging technology which engages students and has become an effective tool in writing instruction across all ages and all learning styles. The blog as expressed by Glewa, “offers students ways to express their experiences through storytelling on the Internet. Digital fluency has become a demand of the 21st century. Schools can now offer students the BLOG as a tool to stimulate thought and discussion, and showcase personal literacy.” (Glewa, 2007). This wiki will present blogs and blogging in a sequential workshop approach to be used in the K-5 setting through all of the core-content curriculum areas. Although the applications are explicitly focused for the K-5 setting, applications could easily be transferred into all K-12 classrooms and curriculum areas. //
