  1. Knowledge: class discussions, documenting an educational experience (entry/ exit slip), journal.

    Comprehension: could be used as an assessment tool (view comprehension levels of a topic and is easily monitored), can be used to provide direct feedback on lessons, teachers can adjust lessons based on inquiries brought forward in the students blogs.
    Application: Can follow other teacher's blogs and learn from their experiences to help in your own professional development, problem solving can be achieved through discussions with other teachers, can find other resources through teacher's blogs to help in your professional development.
    Analysis: Yes, Interaction allows for supportive learning as problems may be solved through discussion.
    Synthesis: Blogging and programs like blogging take teachers towards facilitator role rather than dictator.
    Evaluation: Outside users can access class blogs, less face to face interaction, students could get distracted with applications.
