The blog I chose to review is called Edutech for Teachers by Jamie Forshey who is a teacher and instructional technology specialist at a school Central PA. I have to say that the layout of this blog and its easy access to favorite links is why I choose to review it. The color and design of the background was very intriguing to my love for art.
This blogger does a great job in updating her blog monthly. She averages about 20 blogs a month since 2012. The blog offers a nice setup between posts of the month, pages, and categories. The categories are broken down by links to; BAMS tech club, classroom resources guides, classroom posters, graphics, projects, tools, videos, digital citizenship, fun-day friday, holiday, humor, info graphic of the week, misc, sensational sites, tech pd, tech tip, techno buzz, uncategorized, and worth checking out. I loved that she created shortcuts to specific topic areas in her blog for direct access. The blog is using a font and design that would appeal to teachers and students and is very informative. She has different reviews of apps and resources that are used in the classroom. She even has a club for students interested in technology and a link for them from this blog. It is called BAMS tech club. This club uses technology to bring awareness to different contents that needs to be addressed. There are several youtube videos from the BAMS tech club for each of their projects.I have really enjoyed reading this blogger. It is one that I will definitely be following and modeling after in doing my teacher blog. Her layout is fun, her information is resourceful, and she has great ideas of incorporating technology in the classroom. I encourage everyone to check out this blog.
