Definition

Blog (short of Weblog):

Is a Web site, usually maintained by an individual, with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video.

Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order.

"Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.

A Blog needs an audience to keep it alive for your learners.

Too often blogs wither away leaving the learners frustrated and bored. Quadblogging gives your blog a truly authentic

and global audience that will visit your blog, leave comments and return on a cycle.

“I firmly believe, that an educator who expects his/her students to blog for learning,

NEEDS to be blogging for their own learning. ”
