Thank you so much for coming to our school yesterday and sharing. I love your global projects and can't wait to find time to sit and read the blogs. You both had so many wonderful ideas! The learning opportunities are endless when you bring the technology factor in. I can't wait to see your next great adventure! Great tips!

The earlier we start teaching children the value of online privacy, the safer and more fun the internet becomes for them. Blogs that offer deep levels of privacy such as <a href="http://i.ph" rel="nofollow">I.PH</a> are a useful tool for class blogging. It allows the users to create privileged groups and choose precisely which posts they want to be seen by the public and which ones they want to share only to people they want. By allowing blogs to have a private and public face, children can get all the benefits of blogging. It becomes a place where they interact with a specified group of people and at the same time interact with the rest of the online world. I also believe that this teaches prudence and good judgement. Thanks again for the great read. Blog on! These are great pointers! The earlier we start teaching children the value of online privacy, the safer and more fun the internet becomes for them.

Thanks. I am going to start student blogging soon and had been thinking along these lines. You said you add the clustermap to the teacher blog...do all of your visitors come through the teacher blog or can visitors come directly to the student blogs?
