They love to view the videos I embed into the blog. I also have links to other websites that will help them with some of the objectives that I'm teaching. Thanks for bringing these resources into my classroom. I love using Edublog in my classroom with my students. They love to view the videos I embed into the blog.

Having a site devoted purely to educators initially helped us convince our district to support our efforts at blogging in the first place. With the help of edublogs, the idea of blogging as a transformative learning and communication tool in our district is taking off! The fact that new features are frequently updated or added is a great support to users. Thanks, James!

Thanks so much for this place of reflection!

Didn't really know what it could do. When I took a class from Gail (blogwalker) and listened and observed what edublogs could do, I was ON BOARD! I like how you can set up all sorts of information for parents and students and fellow educators to access --- easily. It is so easy how I can just give my edublog address to teachers who would like to use forms and curriculum that I have been able to upload or copy onto my blog page. I like how students can access forms, assignments, etc. and give no more excuses: I lost my assignment sheet, I didn't have my Study guide, etc. I like how parents can refer to my Survival Guide or Rules and Procedure pages to have a discussion with their child about our classroom, etc. I like how we can accept/decline comments onto our blogs. I plan on starting a Blogging Assignment onto the post sites. Students will be able to write blogs, from home or at school during computer lab times. This is a new form of writing! I was so excited to share my blog page with my fellow teammates. She was very impress and signed up to start her own blog page, too. I hope that when other people visit edublogs, they too will join the revolution of blogging. Thank you for having this service. Blogging has been around for 10 years and I hope that educators can use blogging in their classrooms.
