I must admit that as a teacher, I never had time to read any blogs -- it was often too much just to read the Times Educational Supplement. But now I think that if and when I return to the classroom, blogs will be the mainstay of how I will gather information to inform and develop my teaching. Over the past year or so I have been indebted to a number of bloggers for their inspiration, energy and support. So these are my nominations for the 2009 Edublog Awards:
