I have just introduced another class of 13 students to the possibilty of improving their English by keeping blog diaries. What really amazed me was how they "took to it like the proverbial ducks to water". Only one of the students in the group had a blog (in Korean), yet the rest of them seemed to understand (almost instinctively) how they worked and their potential.
The students looked at a blog from a previous class, before starting their own. They saw that it is possible to store pictures with commentaries, which is what some of them did in their first entry... I don't even know how to do that! I also noticed that in some cases they were quite happy to express negative emotions. They don't get much of a chance to do this, so I'm pleased that they feel free to do so here.
Here is a list of the webpages from the class.
