Your blog will become your reflection journal. Part of your assignment is to email your instructor the URL to your blog. I will then post the URL's on a page in this wiki. We can then reflect and respond to others over the next couple of weeks we are together. The site that we will all use for our blog is called [|EduBlogs]. <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 110%;">**Blog Reflection Topic:** <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 121%;">How does the technology used within the classroom today differ from when you were in school?
