I have a gmail account but the last part of my address is not @gmail.com instead it is our school’s address. I tried to set up all of my students accounts using the gmail method of +1 and they have been set up but I don’t have any passwords. UGH. The only one that worked was the first one I plugged in. All the rest with the +1(ect) registered but the email was not sent. I received an email telling me they were registered. I do use a separate email for contacting me. Does that make a difference if the 2 emails(my blog and their blog) does not match?

@mocorrea Definitely. Most online tools will allow you to do this. Best option is to try testing it and see what happens.

“Educators can use one Gmail account to set up student blogs or sign up for different online services using gmail’s support of plus addressing. ”

I am new at this … so I can use this ONE Gmail account for OTHER web 2.0 resources? not just for Edublogs? like for example wallwisher, glogster, etc?

Thanks for sharing. I learned a lot from you.

@mrsknights9gs When you set up your gmail account you don’t use a + when creating the account. For example. say you are setting it up for your class you may create a gmail account called room19@gmaiil.com.

Once you have created the account you then use this gmail account for signing up for your student accounts in Edublogs. So say for example your student’s name is Brian when you sign up for his account in Edublogs you would use room19+brian@gmail.com and for student John you would sign up for the Edublogs account as room19+john@gmail.com.
