Above and Beyond the Blog


There are many things you can do on a blog that we have not yet learned in our technology class. I will show you some of my favorite things.

Games/Simulations
One thing that you can add to a blogs are things like games. This could be very useful in education if you are using your blog to communicate with your students. This can help in the education if you want to put things like simulations on on your blog so that students can better grasp a concept. To do this all you need to do is find the embedded code of the game and add it to your blog.
Below is and random fun game as an example.



You can also add video to your blog. You can either do this by uploading it from your computer or by finding the embedded code like with the game/simulation. This can be very helped in a classroom for many different reasons.
Here is a great example of a wild physics experiment.

There are many cool things that you can do with blogs that we have not even touched on yet.
These can include all the different kind of casts, such as podcasts. You can also add many things
with sound and voice. You can do much more with blogs than most people think. They are a great
way to display information.
