What's Going On In Iran

What the Economy is doing to CSI

We've recently heard that our school is somewhat broke. The economy has really affected our school and because of it we can't afford to have certain tutoring classes for students in need. Trips have been canceled because the school simply can not make the money. But how does this affect the students? Well for one thing there's no tutoring at the moment and many worksheets or papers can not be given to all students because there is such a shortage on paper. But it seems as if the school is trying to pull together. I mean it's not that bad, we still have our classrooms and athletic teams. The school is staying under control.

Blogs In Education

Blogs used today help people express their ideas, discuss a certain topic and other people can comment on what they think.  If we use blogs in school students will have the chance to have a voice and express their ideas.  With students using blogs in education and/or in school they will learn to build collaboration skills.  With this skill they will learn how to negotiate with one another or in a group.  This could also be a benefit for teachers because they can use the blogs to post homework for the students to read.  This will save paper and will be more convenient for students because we go online everyday.  Students could use the blog to post their own homework up for the teacher to look over.  If students are stuck on the homework they can ask the teachers for help through comments on the blog.  Students can also write what they think about a certain topic to gain feedback about what other students think about it.
