Blogging for Teachers Using LearnSpring

With LearnSpring, we've built a blog based web publishing system that works for teachers. It's easy to get started, easy to use and easy to update as often as needed.

From our discussions with teachers, we've learned that teachers want a service that...

• Is easy to use, but delivers great results.
• Improves communication from teacher-to-parent and vice versa.
• Is flexible enough meet the requirements of different types of teachers and different styles of teaching.

Blogging is a great way for teachers to publish content directly related to the classroom and make it available for parents both online and through e-mail. Parents and guardians don't have to create accounts or go through complicated registration process - they just click over to your site.

It would be great if parents and teachers could speak by phone or meet in person on a weekly basis, but there simply isn't enough time and coordinating schedules can be difficult. Instead, teachers and parents can more easily pass information and communicate better using LearnSpring.

Teachers register with LearnSpring and create their own online account where they can create multiple classrooms. After registering, teachers can post news, assignments, announcements, events and lots of other information for each classroom as often as they would like.

Simply having more information at their disposal helps parents become more involved in the daily classroom function. Instead of asking, for example, basic questions regarding an assignment or homework policy, they can jump right in and help their child. Furthermore, the parent is no longer forced to rely completely on the parent-teacher conference to find out what's been going on in the classroom - a teachers LearnSpring account offers a great solution.
