International Blogs

Internationally blogs are also used in education. Teachers and students over seas use them for the same reasons education leaders are wanting teachers in Alabama to use them. Students need a free way to communicate with their teachers outside of class hours and blogs help them to do just that. Some of the international blogs also allow resources for students that they might otherwise not have access to, and allows them to learn about the rest of the world through students of a particular country.
http://www.iteachnet.org/webzine/?q=blog is a blog for teachers around the globe to exchange ideas and post job availabilities for all other teachers to see. The ideas posted on this site help teachers to better their lessons and have fresh ideas for their students. The job listings allow for teachers who would like to experience life and teaching in another country to apply for jobs in the country they would like to live in.
http://www.internationalstudent.com/blogs-forums/ is a blog for students who plan to study internationally. On this blog students are able to talk about their home countries with others, and discuss other countries with student from a particular country. This site also opens up opportunities for students to travel to other countries to study. This site offers resources for students all over the world to use and learn with, and contains study centers for them to participate in.
