[...] Another way for teachers to protect their classes’ blogs, is to have to moderate each post and approve it for posting. Although this does take quite a while for the teacher, it ensures the posts are safe for the internet. Another tactic is for teachers to be the controller of all blog emails. This means that the teacher has the main mailbox for each blog and the students’ mailboxes are subsidaries. This means that the teacher will be able to see if strange people contact the students through email. This is discussed more in depth here. [...]

@Sue Waters,

I would love a follow-up to this Sue, although this post is really helpful. I plan on starting my students blogging this next year and How To Grow A Blog was extremely helpful! I plan on modifying the visual a bit, but essentially using it for my opening explanation. I think I also might start “small” and experiment with one class versus jumping in with all 5.

Thank you for the wealth of information you provide. Wow have I learned a lot!

Yes if you are using a class blog, and you are an Edublogs Supporter, go to your Plugins tab and activate your threaded comments. This means you can immediately respond back to a specific comment. That is what you are seeing when I write a comment here on The Edublogger. Regardless of whether it is the first comment or the last comment I can write a response.

Hi there. This section was EXTREMELY helpful! I haven’t found the answer to one particular question though.

Is there a way for students (with only Subscriber access) to comment on particular comments? At this time, they do not have their own blogs and are set up with just usernames.
If this isn’t feasible, do you have any suggestions for how to get around that- other than having the student say In response to blahblah’s post…
