On Friday 28th October I offered professional development training to my colleagues on using Blogs for teaching writing (or at least for encouraging Ss to write) in their own classrooms. One of my colleagues has since introduced her class to writing with Blogs. Her URL is www.parkin-dodd-standing.blogspot.com . In discussion with me she raised an interesting point; that some of her students don't want anyone to be able to read their blogs. We'll have to look at the settings and see if it is possible to block accessibility. But, should the teacher have access? It's something that I hadn't considered before... the idea of privacy in a public forum.
Some of the other trainees who took part in the session have got blogsites at:

There were seven trainees in all who took part, but a number has suggested that they wouldn't mind if it was offered again as they weren't able to be there but would have liked to have been.
