Leaders can use blogs for several purposes but two main contexts stand out to me. First, as I have already found this to be true, blogging allows us to create a professional network that we otherwise might not be able to form. Through blogging I have been able to gain insight into other prospective administrators’ and school leaders thoughts and ideas, which have helped me to shape and question my own. This has been remarkably powerful. Second, blogging allows us to capture and record our thoughts so that we can go back and revisit them at another time – just like an online journal. Add to this that others can comment on our thoughts and opinions and you have a very powerful professional development tool. I believe I am going to really enjoy this experience.
