One use within a teacher education program, which some may be doing now in this course, is sharing experiences and tips about information learned in classes. You could post reflections on lessons you had to teach either in your Micro-Teach in 3070 or what you saw during observation at a school.
If you had a blog while actually teaching a class, you could use it as a means to communicate with parents and students about upcoming events in the class or at school. You could post homework worksheets there in case students lose theirs (you know its going to happen). If you are working with class to become profiecent with using technologies, you might have them read something off your blog and them write a response as a comment.
There's a whole plethora of things you can do with a blog.
I like your idea of using this technology to post homework assignments. Lord only knows how many times I had lost my assignments. That's interesting.
