Value of Blogs in School

Blogs in the classroom can be beneficial in many ways due to their way to outlet students creativity and increase their writing skills. Blogs also give a way for students to cope with some problems they may have if they properly express it on their blog. Also blogs are a good way for students to express themselves. They are also good to improve computer skills in stuff like web designing and may get some students interested in those careers. Also I think that blogs can be a great way to record how much you changed over the last year or whatever... just like journals.
