Educational leaders could use blogging in various ways. Principals could use blogging to encourage professional growth in their faculty. For instance, a principal could post an article that was relevant to the campus vision on their blog and encourage his/her faculty to read and respond. It would be a great way for principals to get a pulse on their faculty's interest and support of the campus vision and on pedagogical articles.
Additionally, it would be a great opportunity for principals to network and talk, share and learn from each other. Specifically, principals of campuses with similar demographics and/or climates can collaborate on such issues such as State testing, resources, budgets, parental involvement, attendance, etc. It would be a great start to a professional learning community. Finally, blogging can be a useful tool for leaders to reflect on their decisions, actions and goals. It could be used as a journaling option.
