More Classroom Blogging

In doing research on blogging I have found several articles with the same basic concepts: Blogging provides opportunities for students to be more involved in their education and receive some extra assistance after everyone goes home from school.

In the article "Using Blogs in the Classroom: A new approach to teaching social studies with the internet", C. Frederick Risinger states "A classroom blog provides a way for students to view homework assignments, discuss important issues, ask questions and receive feedback from other students, and could provide parents with an opportunity to see what's going on in the classroom and even contribute their ideas and knowledge," definite values for classroom instruction. 

Since resources can be invaluable, I am posting blogs I have found on ways to blog for the classroom:
