Places to Send Students in Search of Religion Blog Topics
Posted: January 22, 2012 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: blogging, teaching 2 Comments »I gave a couple of talks around Emory last week about my experience teaching with social media last semester. In the wake of those I’ll be posting some resources for folks looking to use blogging or Twitter in their classes. Here is a list of good sites I recommended to students for looking for articles/posts to write their posts about. While I didn’t require them to use these, almost every one of them did and they had great results.
