Thing 3
Blogs could support the developmental guidance curriculum. I am thinking about it from the career/college planning perspective. It could be used more as an informational "guide book" for students as they navigate through the post-secondary process. I think students would respond well to a blog assignment since many of the tools used in the post-secondary planning process involve research using other web based sites and applications. One concern I have about educational blogging is the maintenance of the blog. Establishing and using the blog seems very user friendly, but when you add the numbers of students that potentially could be using it a given time it seems overwhelming to keep track what they are doing. I guess it would depend on the type of parameters I would need to establish for the blog and it's intent/purpose.

Yes - it can seem a bit overwhelming, but you are correct - depending on your expectations and how you set it up, it can be fairly easy to monitor. I've used blogs for the NHS Book Club and it was very easy (certainly not the numbers of students that you would have in a class, however)
