Some blogs are used for classroom work, teachers and students blog as an instructional strategy. Some blogs are strictly informational, giving others a way to find information such as assignments, places to find information, etc.
Most of the blogs look like fun, and students would probably be more likely to access information on blogs.
Class blogs as an instructional strategy
