Why is blogging relevant to learning and teaching?

" I think blogging is... ...a genre that may have great value in terms of developing all sorts of critical thinking skills, writing skills and information literacy among other things. We teach exposition and research and some other types of analytical writing already, I know. Blogging, however, offers students a chance to

a) reflect on what they are writing and thinking as they write and think it,

b) carry on writing about a topic over a sustained period of time, maybe a lifetime,

c) engage readers and audience in a sustained conversation that then leads to further writing and thinking and

d) synthesize disparate learning experiences and understand their collective relationship and relevance.

This just seems to me to be closer to the way we learn outside of school, and I see those things sorely lacking anywhere in traditional education."
