The University of Southern California puts this list of top ranked educational blogs together to help teachers find the best blogs to read. Here are a few things I found interesting. MindShift - Did you listen to the Serial podcast? Under the Teaching Strategies section read about some students who created their own podcast as a final exam. I love this idea! Classroom 2.0 - #1 Ning is still alive? This was a shocker to me. #2 Jump into a few conversations in the forum section. Don't see something you like? Why not create your own. Edudemic - The wicked interesting part is the front page article (when I clicked on it) was about podcasts! The second article that caught my eye was about self-publishing as the best writing lesson ever.
