I am very new to this technology and really like the possibility of setting up a blog for my classes; it is such a great way to get students to be involved in discussions without having to participate in class, as well as Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to start a class blog?

I'd love to be able to have my welcome post with the class blog "rules" always at the top so that the students see it each time. So far, our blogging has been limited to students responding to questions we ask (generally associated with the unit we are working on) in lieu of a journal. It's been great. When they were required to do the journals in a notebook, most don't do them and we can't keep up until we go to grade the journals...a long lag time. This way, we can keep up with who is/is not posting and keep them from getting too far behind. They also like reading each other's thoughts, which improves the quality of responses. Now, if I can just get them to use proper English...;) Thanks for this great site. I look forward to having more and better usage of it next year.

For example, if I had a welcome comment with a couple of notes, that might be something that I would like to have stay at the top of the page no matter how many comments were placed underneath or if there was a homework item that I wanted to keep at the top of the posts so that it was easy to find. I think though that there would have to be something that denoted that this was a sticky item so others would know that the page was still being updated. Thanks Ian Hi James,

That would make it usable for our Sister Class project? Larry Is there anyway at all you can set it up so that posts to forums we create can be moderated?
