Blogs in Educational Action Research

Blogs are online journals. Principals or other educational leaders can use the public journal entries to capture their thoughts and display them for others. In action research blogs can play an active role in helping the researcher document via a narrative timeline the events as they unfold in their research project. Having your thoughts out in the open, available for other educational leaders to read and reflect on gives the researcher feedback as well. The comment section of a blog lets other leaders share their insights on the situation at hand and possibly offer some advice or guidance.
