Quite a no of teachers in the dept have started posting their reflection blogs and I tried to read as many of them as possible and of course give some comments as much as I can. Still notice a no of them have not done so. May have to think of a way to get them to do it weekly.
Though a certain amount of time needs to be spent on reading the blogs and commenting them, it is quite fun and rewarding. I feel that posting reflection blogs does help us to get to know what others are doing in their classes and also getting feedback from others who commented in our blogs does help in developing and motivating us in our teaching. This is a good practice but not easy to sustain unless one has a right mindset that it is not an additional chore to what we are already doing.

yes, agree.
having the discipline to reflect professionally is a great start to creating the professional learning commnity (PLC)
and the purpose is crystal clear: to grow professionally through peer critique, support and encouragement
those who do not practice are either:
1. not professionally sound, or
2. in the wrong profession
:)
find a way to share about your innovations with the SMC:
1. this blogging thingy
2. the department google apps
3. the cohort-style SOW
HH, you have done remarkable work,keep up the great effort in building your team of professionals!
