Pedagogy is the study of being a teacher or the process of teaching. The term generally refers to strategies of instruction, or a style of instruction.
interesting topic right? sure. I have been interested in this topic for quite sometime as my educational goal is to become a professor. Canvas right now we have several problems as many students know. Canvas is actually working fine as far as I can tell, it's the fact that I have three professors using Canvas, one using BlackBoard, and another professor using his very own Google webpage.... not right. Needless to say I have come to the conclusion that what is best and most convenient for the students should be precisely what the professors should be doing (all of them), one website for all of the students.
Blog Pedagogy - As a mother of three children I have some experience in navigating teacher's blogs.
http://www.thomasedisoncharterschool.org/ - this is not where the blogs are, but what an awesome idea that would be right! if the school's website had a link to the individual teacher's blogs.
http://classblogmeister.com/blog.php?blogger_id=41233 - The Arbor Heights Elementary School has a great blog. The blog has a link to the school webpage - great idea. This blog is also great because a parent could keep up to date with pretty much everything their kid is doing in that class. The teacher using flickr which is good as long as the parents have consented to putting their children on the internet.
http://www.classblogmeister.com/blog.php?blogger_id=71175 - The Almighty Bloggers - is a good blog. The colors are a bit distracting, but the pictures are great! I think the sidebar with the "related links" on this blog and some of the others is a great tool for those navigating to this blog. I liked the use of stories and YouTube videos to get the message out to students and parents.
