QuadBlogging is something I have blogged about here earlier this year.
The term QuadBlogging was coined by David Mitchell.
The concept: four blogging classes come together and learn about one another one week at a time. Each week a different blog in the quad is the focus and the other three classes take the time to visit and comment on their blog.
Earlier this year, Linda Yollis, Jonah Salsich, Judy McKenzie, Kelly Jordan and I all decided we’d make our own quad.
*Mrs. Yollis’ Classroom Blog, California, U.S.A.*
*Open the Door to B-4 in New Zealand*
*Mr. Salsich Class Blog, Connecticut, U.S.A*
*2KM and 2KJ in Australia *
This works really well and we wanted to share the message with other classes. Teachers and students from all four classes got together recently to collaborate on a video about QuadBlogging. We used the tool Sliderocket which was easy to use and effective.
Thanks to Linda Yollis who put the final product together!
Awesome stuff Kathleen!
I can’t wait to do some classblogging next year with my year 7/8 class. We might be knocking on your door for some advice from the blogging pros!
