An important preliminary aspect of research is determining what others have to say about a particular topic. Blogs can serve as a tool to solicit various viewpoints on a research topic or to gain feedback from others. In this way, blogs are used to collect data that could prove important to the final research project. This writing procedure allows you to build upon data and information over a period of time and allows you to share your inquiry as it unfolds with persons in and outside of the district. This type sharing is important for collaboration with persons you might not otherwise come in contact with throughout the scope of your research. “Hence, blogging can be a wonderful way to share your research with colleagues that are 1,000 miles or more from your school” (Dana, 2009, p. 150).
