My Summary

In his paper “Weblogs for Use with ESL Classes,” Aaron Patric Campbell (2003) states that a weblog is a unique software that has many functional, easy to be operated, and can be used in educational purposes. There are three types of this weblog that has its own purposes in helping every learner. The first one is the tutor blog which help the tutor in providing some information for the learner to learn. Other is the learner blog which is for the learner to develop their writing skills. The last is the class blog that used for a group of entire class in learning how to use weblog software that suits for every different level of the learner. Although it is really helpful, getting the weblog software sometimes facing many issues that need to be considered wisely. But, with getting known first about the three types of weblog, it could help the learner and the tutor in learning using software and maximized the support’s potential in based ESL learning.
