One of our goals this week was to search for a blog that would be useful to students in one or more of our courses. I chose the Green Business Blog at the New York Times. One of my goals for the Greening of Business class is to have each student create a blog that they can update throughout the course with articles that are particularly relevant to their area of specialization in business. Students might choose accounting, marketing, business management, corporate social responsibility and ethics, purchasing, international business, etc. I always encourage students to look for credible sources and research articles that are peer reviewed. The New York Times is a credible news source and while there is a diversity of thought and opinion offered on the blog, it is much easier for the reader to establish whether an article or link is fact based research or an opinion piece.
