Now there is a page for professional blog posts, separate from class, pupil or teaching blogs. This could be used for cpd or just to keep an eye on other teacher\/consultant\/whatever blogs. If you visit SEB less frequently you will be able to see the &#8216;professional&#8217; posts less chance of them being buried by class blog posts.<\/p>\n<p>Recently with twitter coming to the fore as a way of keeping up with online community there have been new Scots Educational bloggers who have not added their blog to SEB <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scotedublogs.org.uk\/blogs\/new\" title=\"ScotEduBlogs blogs: new\">now might be a good time to do so<\/a>. If you do and you consider yourself an educational professional be sure to tag your blog Professional.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scotedublogs.org.uk\/blogs\/new\" title=\"ScotEduBlogs blogs: new\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/johnjohnston.info\/blog\/images\/2011-02\/2011-02-09_sebbloglisting.jpg\" alt=\"Sebbloglisting\" height=\"170\" width=\"526\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Glow Blogs<\/h3>\n<p>There has been an influx of new blogs since glow has added blogging to its toolset.
