Why creating a blog ?

What is a blog?

A blog is a a contraction of the term web log; that has an administrator (owner) and regular entries, commentaries, and events, pictures, or videos.

Many people use them as personal online diaries. Others, as a professional tool to share and gain experience from other people in their working fields.

This is a special blog that we created, to let you know what it is, and how you can create your own, or at least check out what other english teachers are doing.

At this time you may be wondering why you should create a blog... Come on!!! We bet your students already have their own blogs, their personal webpages, and a lot of interactive sites where they surely enjoy posting pictures, comments, and other things that we may consider rather interesting.

The possibilities are huge through blogs!!! You can post your ideas, ask for advice, learn from others, and help your students in many ways, when they have doubts, or even ask them to write their comments about a subject in your own blog.

So, welcome to the world of blogs.
