I have never followed a blogger before, professionally or personally. Overall, I thought they were pretty good. The best ones, in my opinion, were the ones that kept their thoughts short and sweet. I liked that I could read a lot of different topics in a short amount of time. If I found a topic I found interesting, I could search for longer articles or posts about it in more detail.
The one that I enjoyed the most was Edutopia. There was so much information on this blog, it was incredible! They did a great job of breaking it all down into easy to find categories too. I went straight to the middle school section, and began looking at different topics that were meaningful to me. There was also a section for videos, which is always a nice way of switching it up when you've done too much reading (sorry English teachers!).
One section in Edutopia that I want to remember is their section on Social-Emotional Learning. The other grade level advisors on my team and myself are looking at ways we can change up what we do in advisory. It will be nice to continue to visit this blog to find more information as the school year goes on.
Finally- one thing I noticed is that there were many authors for this blog. I didn't really think that this would be a thing, but it makes a lot of sense to get more information out there available to people.
