Edutopia is the first blog that I would suggest visiting. This blog contains an abundance of different topics within the education field. Some of the topics included in this blog are assessment, project-based learning, and social and emotional learning. These three topics specifically are very prevalent in education today and are definitely worth checking out. If you do not like reading blog post after blog post there is also the option to watch videos that describe different concepts and show you how they work.
tmac is the second blog that I would suggest visiting. Trevor MacKenzie has a plethora of resources on this blog. You may have heard of his books Inquiry Mindset or Diving into Inquiry, as this is how I learned more about who he is. He writes books to help teachers learn how to incorporate inquiry into the classroom and talks about them on his blog. He also has a blog section on his page where he expands on different ideas relating to inquiry and anything else he has been learning about. I would highly suggest this blog and/or his books if you are considering using inquiry within your classroom.
EdSurge is the final blog that I would suggest visiting. My favourite sections would have to be the “most read” and “latest news” sections. These allow you to see what has been viewed the most and might be worth reading, as well as what is the most recent on the blog and within the education field. This blog includes various guides and age ranges as well. It varies from how to deal with the pandemic in the PK-12 school system, while also covering how to help higher education students transform into scholars.
Overall, I would highly suggest checking out all of these blogs. They have helped me throughout my Bachelor of Education degree immensely. There is also value in them as a non-education student or as a parent because it gives insight into a variety of topics that could still be prevalent in different areas as work or as a parent of a student in the school system.
