It happened to me! And so on, and so on….
I have not posted in a few days; I thought I had a deep moment with the last post, but no comments so I became discouraged. Earlier today I was going through the chapter on RSS in my current bible Blogs, Wikis and Podcasts. While playing around with folders and organizing my feeds I checked a new feed on Adventures in Educational Blogging.
In her Blog Susan Sedro, offered great advice to another relatively new blogger who was feeling overwhelmed. At first I read and re-read Susan’s post in Adventures in Educational Blogging. (She offers great advice on how to manage the implementation of blog curriculum) Then, I decided to take a look at the novice blogger she was referencing. After all, I am only a few days into this and feeling very unsure of myself in the blogosphere, another newbie would be great to commune with.
Kim Cofino’s Always Learning blog is moving along nicely, and she had already started to implement great blogging lesson plans into her curriculum. One line of her current post summarized how I was feeling:
For a while there I was feeling so far behind that I didn’t want to demonstrate my “late-adopter-ness” by posting things that everyone knows already.
Boy did I identify with that! Then she mentions how she found this post that made her realize that there were so many other teachers out there that felt the same way. When I followed the link …It was MY BLOG she was referencing! I got goose bumps, and then I think I “got” blogging
