The first blog viewed was ASCO Community Blog. This blog mainly provided access to resources for educators. One on the recent posts on this blog talked about 1st grade learning environments. Recent studies showed that 23% of 1st grade classrooms rate high when scored for academic and social climate, 31% had positive emotional environments but low levels of academic quality. this blog discussed the environments of 1st grade classrooms. It also provided pod casts on different blogs. http://ascd.typepad.com/blog/
The second blog I viewed was about Military discipline helping dropouts. This blog talked about the National Guards Youth Challenge being the most successful large scale program for dropout students. Most studies showed that 9 months after leaving the program 36% of students were more likely to earn a G.E.D. or high school diploma. they would also be three time likely to be attending college and work a full time job. I think military discipline is a great idea for dropout students. I can be very motivational. http://joannejacobs.com/2009/03/09/military-discipline-helps-dropouts/
