Thanks Steve. While this series of articles won’t really get heavily into individual student blogs, yes, I agree with you that WordPress MU is a great option. Can I ask how much you pay Edublogs to host your blogs?

I aim to focus on getting just one (or several) class blogs created per school because they can easily be managed. Many teachers might find controlling individual student blogs a major challenge. But ultimately, individual blogs in some form or other will happen.

WordPress Multi-user blog site software is a good one to use. (Edublogs use it as well). The teacher can enter through the back door to any student’s blog and make adjustments as needed. I have never had to censor a student (yet) but have had to change a number of settings eg. plugins. It was faster for me to do it in an evening rather than waiting a week to confirm all the students had changed the required settings. Also, only one password is needed. It is indeed very important for a teacher to have access to individual student blogs.
