One of Julie’s early posts, Integrating, Evaluating, and Managing Blogging in the Classroom usefully highlights the pedagogical issues that instructors need to consider and explain to their students in order for blogging to be a successful element of the course design. Julie and Jeff cowrote an excellent discussion of different approaches to grading student blogs. Mark generously offers his grading rubric as an example and also describes using a blog audit as a way to get students to reflect upon their own blogging practice. Guest author Derek Bruff describes using blogs for pre-class quizzes and guest author Dave Parry describes why he prefers WordPress to a campus wide Learning Management System.
