Bloggers, Inc. 2012-2013
The Sacred Heart School Ateneo de Cebu Grade 8 (HS-III) students started their Bloggers, Inc. Elective classes on Friday, July 13, 2012! FRIDAY THE 13TH! Isn't that ominous?? Good sign or Bad sign! Of course, it's a good sign!!
This school year's batch of bloggers promises to be a insightful bunch. I believe we will get this 1st sem batch interested in a new concept in Journal Writing -- Blogging!
Journal writing, at one time or another, was thought of as tiring and arm-numbing! I'm sure it still is thought that way even today. Well, Blogging will bring about a different attitude in a sense that it will be typed on a computer which will solve the problem about arms getting numb.
Blogs, which is short for Web Logs are quite popular these days. Here are a few stats to whet your appetite.
# of bloggers in 2011 - 70 Million
2/3 are Male Bloggers
60% are 18-44 years old
75% have college degrees
40% have graduate degrees
One in three has an annual household income of $75K+
One in four has an annual household income of $100K+
What do these stats mean?
A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE DOING IT!
So let's get the ball rolling and start reading our students' blogs!
