If you want to have a classroom blog with just the teacher as the blogger and students commenting, the students do NOT need edublog/learnerblog accounts. You can set the writing settings so the students aren’t even required to type in a name or email, and then just make it YOUR requirement that they do so. Unfortunately, you can’t choose JUST a name requirement, it is attached to the email requirement.
Again, following the same scenario as above with teacher as blogger, you can “respond” to the comments to turn it into a conversation by simply going onto your blog as a reader and submitting your comment (Gail’s edublogs manual indicates how to do this within the actual comment, as well)
Make sure you have it set that all comments must be moderated! Very important that nothing “naughty” gets put up on your classroom blog without you knowing about it and catching it
Don’t have the students use their real names – either assign screen names or use initials
If you choose to have individual student blogs, these should be at learnerblogs, rather than edublogs – I have set up a fairly simple way to do this so that they are completely moderated (posts as well), you can contact me on my blog http://googtweetblog.edublogs.org if you’re interested in learning more before I get around to posting about it.
