Having a classroom blog for my students to use is a great way to allow them to share their thoughts and ideas with one another. Allowing students to blog also gives them an arena to showcase their work and creativity. Blogging will also give the students a way to communicate outside the classroom. However, one drawback of having a classroom blog might be that not all students will have access to a computer and internet outside of the classroom; this should be taken into consideration when using a classroom blog. Rules and guidelines should also be set forth for the students to follow.
