Manfaat Blog Bagi Dunia Pendidikan

Sakra mania, blog telah menjadi gaya hidup. Kegiatan blogging telah menjamur di mana-mana dari berbagai kalangan dan setiap elemen masyarakat. Entah itu hanya sebagai buku harian, ungkapan opini, ide, kreatifitas hingga untuk meraup penghasilan lebih dari berbagai macam bisnis dunia maya.munculnya keragaman dalam dunia blog senidiri maka terciptalah sebuah dunia maya yang sangat kompleks dan saling melengkapi tak jauh bedanya dengan dunia nyata. Dengan mendapatkan informasi dengan cepat, media sosialisasi (online), mempererat persahabatan, membangun sebuah komunitas, hingga menambah penghasilan dan lain sebagainya. Dari situlah blog bisa menjadi sebuah candu bagi seseorang, hingga tak heran kalau ada seseorang yang rela menghabiskan sebagian besar waktunya di dunia maya.
Namun Blog tidak hanya untuk hal tersebut, Blog juga dapat dimanfaatkan untuk dunia pendidikan. Misalnya untuk mengembangkan proses transfer ilmu.
Dalam konteks dunia pendidikan, guru dan murid perlu terlebih dahulu diperkenalkan kepada konsep pembelajaran elektronik dan blog beserta manfaat-manfaatnya, yang sudah dibeberkan di atas tadi.
Berikut ini merupakan manfaat blog bagi dunia pendidikan :
1. Mendorong siswa untuk selalu mendokumentasikan apa yang ada di dalam pikiran mereka, termasuk di antaranya adalah pengetahuan, pengalaman, perasaan, pendapat, dan lain-lain, dengan metode yang paling sesuai dengan kepribadian masing-masing, apakah itu lewat tulisan, gambar, suara, atau video. Hal ini, selain berguna sebagai ajang latihan mengungkapkan ide-ide yang terpendam, juga berguna untuk penghematan biaya dalam hal publikasi gagasan karena dengan media blog, sebuah gagasan tidak perlu dimuat dalam ribuan lembar kertas agar dapat terpublikasi secara luas. Setiap buah pikiran yang berhasil mereka dokumentasikan, sebaiknya diberi apresiasi agar mereka juga semakin terpacu untuk mendokumentasikan pengetahuan yang mereka punya. Apresiasi tersebut tidak harus berupa materi, tapi bisa juga berupa tanggapan, pengakuan, pujian, dan bahkan kritikan atas apa yang mereka berhasil dokumentasikan.
2. Menggantikan kelas-kelas diskusi yang selama ini selalu terbatas pada waktu dan sebuah ruangan fisik, sehingga proses pembelajaran pun dapat diselenggarakan dengan lebih fleksibel.
3. Cara yang efektif untuk meningkatkan minat belajar para siswanya. Misalnya seorang guru memposting suatu permasalahan atau materi pelajaran yang disusun dalam suatu bahasa yang formal tetapi lebih santai. Para siswanya kemudian bisa blogwalking ke blog tersebut dan kegiatan belajar mengajar pun bisa menjadi lebih menyenangkan. Materi pelajaran yang diposting melalui media blog bisa menjadi sebuah konten hebat yang bermanfaat bagi kemajuan dunia pendidikan.
4. Memperkenalkan teknologi internet di kalangan pelajar dan pengajar, juga bisa menjadi terobosan baru di dunia pendidikan. By the way, teknologi yang semakin canggih ini asal dimanfaatkan semaksimal mungkin, diharapkan dapat menghasilkan suatu perubahan besar, tidak hanya di bidang pendidikan, bahkan mencakup semua bidang.
