Imagine you are a student in my science class. I have set up a blog and given you the administrator rights and the instruction to look at the links provided and post your understanding of a concept covered, say "the evolution of plants". You need to look at the web links and summarise the content. You can summarise it however you like and add a post with the title of your name and you have 6 weeks to do it, "off you go".
What will the students create as a blog over the next 6 weeks, it would be rather interesting. The students can comment on each others work or if given the instruction work in groups. They could also find more web sites, place their own thoughts, add movies, photos, make movies, PowerPoint's, audio, the creativity is limitless. We all know that each post can be edited by the administrator so the students could also add new information to older posts.
ICTs are about being creative, thinking outside the square and giving the students exciting challenges.
