If you are a blogger you'll know about the annual Edublogs Awards. The Edublog Awards started in 2004. They promote and demonstrate the educational value of social media such as the use of blogs and Twitter for educational purposes. These awards take place in November/December yearly in three stages.
I always love looking through the winning blogs as they are great resource blogs to bookmark and refer to throughout the ensuing year. This year I was surprised to notice that they were mostly blogs I hadn't visited before. Ronnie Burt from Edublogs has a post that shows the categories of the competition and announces the five winners in each section. His post can be accessed here. I am adding the winners below for easier reference.
Best Individual Blog
Best EdTech/Resource Blog
If you currently don't keep a classroom blog why not consider if during 2016? You'll find that it is a rich experience for both you and your students.
- First there is the Nominations stage.
- This is followed by the Voting stage.
- Finally the winners are announced.
