Having weblogs in the classroom I think is an excellent idea.  It is a good way to connect with students and have class discussions.  In addition, weblogs would allow me as a teacher to reflect on my teaching experiences and to possibily share some of those experiences with other educators.  I totally agree with Mr. Cunningham in the article "Should "technology intergration" be an important goal in schools."  I agree that with out a national vison for education and without leadership on a higher level we will continue to have limited vision and continue our back to the basic approaches forever.  Let's not forget that teachers can never be replaced and we have to stick to some of the basics methods however, technology intergration is absolutely necessary in the world we live in today.
