Edublogs - Learn Together, Blog Together

Edublogs provides some interesting features that might appeal to the classroom teacher looking to facilitate a blog where students can be active contributors. Based upon the Wordpress blog creation platform, Edublogs has a lot of features and for those who are new to blogging and managing your own blog, be sure to take some time to explore the features of this online application. As administrator of the blog I can invite students to join the blog as authors, editors, contributors or subscribers which in turn provides a certain level of rights and permissions to edit and contribute to the blog. Edublogs is designed specifically for education and thus cracks down on adult content and reduces embedded advertisements. It is quick to get started as an administrator, however you will need to be able to email Edublogs invites to your students in order for them to begin contributing to the blog.
