While researching and learning how to use RSS feeds, I found that RSS can be very helpful and very easy to use. I have thought many times that I don't have the time or the energy to go back to websites regularly. This was very insightful to me in giving me a way to have updates sent right to me. I have seen how others have benefited from using RSS feeds but it just wasn't "for me." I know see how using RSS feeds in Education can be effective. Being that I teach 1st grade, implementing the use of RSS in my classroom and expecting my students to understand and use it is very unrealistic. On the flip side, I, myself can use the RSS to update myself on how to help my students.
I can see how it would be appropriate to incorporate my students using RSS if I were in Intermediate Elementary Grades, Middle School, or High School. For instance if I were teaching in a High School setting, I would set up a website. I would be able to constantly update the site with homework requirements, calendar items, or even providing them with resources that they would be able to use to help them increase their education. There are other endless possibilities for using RSS in Education but most be used appropriately as well.
