"In a previous Prof. Hacker post, Jason Jones linked to Hillary Miller’s “Lessons from a First-Time Course Blogger”, which contains great advice such as making sure not to forget about the blog and not assuming students know everything about technology. This advice (and do read Miller’s entire post for an honest description of some lessons learned) meshes quite nicely with the roles of role model, tech support, and cheerleader we should play when implementing technology in the classroom."

I've used blogs in my classes for five years with students. I've found them to be extremely helpful in certain circumstances but only when there is clarity for students in their use. Students who object to the inclusion of blogs in a course are usually objecting to what they perceive will be just one more task on top of a myriad of others or simply some busy work that will not benefit their learning. Older students can also reject the notion of "publication" that is inherent with blogging. Each of these objections can be addressed by an effective and innovative instructor by careful planning and skillful management. There are, however, several common mistakes that should be avoided when using blogs in instruction. I have made all of these mistakes and have learned how to address each one proactively.

"Students taking their first philosophy course often express surprise when encouraged to use "I" in their papers. Unlike academic writing in most other disciplines, philosophical writing frequently and strongly states the "I" because philosophers have to develop and defend their own positions. They cannot weasel out of taking responsibility for their views, and thus the assertion of the "I" means that they are willing to stand or fall with their expressed position." (Academic Commons)

"Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. As of December 2007, blog search engine Technorati was tracking more than 112 million blogs."

"Everything I’ve done with my blog design is intentional. I’m not saying that my blog design is perfect, and I certainly have other things I’d like to do in the future, but I wanted to share with you some thoughts about blog design, starting with my blog, but then showing some design ideas from other sites as well. Why should blog design matter? Because you want your blog to serve the purpose you’ve built it to serve." (chrisbrogan.com)

"...I have decided to write a series of posts concerning the matter. I will focus all discussion of etiquette upon what has come to be termed the edublogosphere - or educational blogging - because I think that we actually have our own standard, our own set of rules, and should (more often than not) set the proper example for others."
