EDLD 5301 - How Can Educational Leaders Use Blogs


Educational leaders can use blogs in several different ways.  As a school leader they can use blogs as a forum to communicate important school information to their stakeholders .  Blogs can be used to gain feedback from stakeholders on various topics of concern, as an online diary, and also as a way to model writing for students (Dana, 2009).   Blogs that are used regularly can be a great source of collaboration with and support from other educational leaders.  Dana (2009), explains that blogs are a great place for administrators to share their inquires in order to play with, develop, and challenge ideas that have developed about their administrative practices as a result of engaging in inquiry (Dana, 2009, p. 150).
