It would help if...
...i kept this thing up somewhat regularly. I'm actually keeping a regular blog at http://balboahighmedia.blogspot.com
This is for my media lit class that I teach at Balboa High School in San Francisco. The kids need to respond to a number of questions a week, and build on their knowledge of the media and currently, on-line media.

That's what I'm talking about
i knew I wasn't going to keep this thing going regularly. I have no time. And the time I have is dedicated to my wife, daughter, grading and tribe.net. Check it out.
I teach media lit at Balboa high school in San Francisco. I am planning to get my kids into blogging by next week, and I never put any attention on mine. Is that hypocritical? I know the benefits of a good blog, but it takes dedication; that and perhaps the incentive of a grade.
Is this the best blog site to use? Keep up with this site every six months or so and see what happens.

Teaching High School
I'm a teacher at Balboa high School in San Francisco. Balboa has had a reputation for the past dozen or so years as a powder keg ready to explode. And at times that was precisley (sp?) what it was. Today balboa is a pretty exceptional place to be a student and a teacher.
I teach Pre-Law (we have a Law Academy) and Media Literacy (my major in college, and a class I always wanted to teach). I can say I'm pretty lucky to be here. I'm also developing an Academy of Information Technology (AOIT) for next year. That and the fact that I live a 20 minute walk away is a pretty good clue how i feel about my job.
Of course being at a high school with a past reputation for teen violence also has its hurdles. For instance, some kids who are at heart really nice and sweet, think that since they're at Bal they need to be tough. There's enough testosterone in this school to stop a rampaging bull at times.
I'd like to make part of this blog a teaching journal so you can get a real sense what it's like to be a teacher in an urban school.
Gotta run for now. Check back soon.
