Kathy,
Thanks for your comment and thoughts. Publishing online is such a motivating way to get students to want to write. They see a purpose and an authentic audience for their writing which usually results in better writing. As you mentioned many teachers are put off by the technology term of blogging. Maybe we can call them "interactive online journals". That is what blogging is. What do you think?
Smiles,
Megan
