=**What are iNotes/eBlogs. . . .**=

eBlogs are a useful tool for educators because they allow teachers to post assignments, word documents, podcasts, class notes, and other forms of technology. iNotes/eBlogs are not interactive the way wikispaces are. Teachers can use iNotes to post relevant information for parents and students.

Suggestions for eblogs include: newsletters, assignments, websites, photos, upcoming events, articles of interest, practice exercises and activities. eBlogs can be used to substitute or supplement newsletters and assignments that are normally sent home. Teachers can choose to allow parents to post questions or comments on the blog. One time saving strategy for teachers is that teachers can save blogs under the archive tab at the end of the school year and re-post the blogs the following year.
