[Year 12 IT Apps] Blogging

[Stephen Digby]

Prefer moodle forum to blogs (presume the functional distinction is that blogs retain each individual's
contribution stream seperately, while forums have everyone's contributions mixed together.

Hi Charmaine,
 
What forum structure are you using?  How has it been set up?  Have you set your own up on the local server or
are you using an outside provider?  I'm interested in ideas.  thanks for your input

Hi Michael,
I use forums for this and it does encourage students to participate.

Hi All,
 
Is there anyone that has set up a Blogs site at their school for the purpose of allowing students to ask the
expert (teachers) questions, and I don't mean just IT teachers but teachers across all teaching areas.  And is
this helping students with their approach to learning?  I am keen to set up a blogs site at my school so that
ideas can be shared and questions asked.  I saw an example on the British Museum site where students blog
questions to the experts.  This would be cool in a school environment.
 
Keen to hear views and strategies
