Beacon School featured in T&L Learning

The June issue of T&L Learning features Technology Integration and the Beacon School Portal by Chris Lehmann. I read his blog, A View from the Classroom–Lehmann’s Log. He is doing a great job at his school. His school is an alternative high school located on Manhattan’s Upper West Side in the New York City public school system.  The article points out the important role a school web site plays for the community.  Beacon is certainly a great example of this.  Chris writes the following about blogs at his school:

  • This year, we have caught the “blogging” wave, and

    • our students,

    • teachers,

    • and even classes are into blogging, demonstrating how it can both work within the classroom and as a personal expression within the larger school community.

  • In addition, our college counselor has created The College Blog as a clearinghouse of information on the college process.
  • Great story - go read the entire article!
