I hope all of you find the "blog book" really useful. Let me know if I can be of further support. I'd hate to see blogs be turned into "mere social networking" when the power is there to teach students. Diane Thanks for the kind words, everyone!

Both the book and your lessons learned from the previous post are very valuable. I did a joint blogging project with my third graders and preservice teachers at the University of Florida last year. I had many of the same results, but still picked up pointers from your lessons learned. Thank you so much. This is a wonderful resource.

I am a technology specialist at an elementary school in Minnesota and we are just starting to use blogging with our students. Seeing this book review in your sight was a great addition to our quest in using blogging for educational purposes. Thanks for the idea! I enjoy following and gaining more knowledge from your blog. Thanks :) Anne -

I have been trying to keep up with the Building Learning Communities Conference for the past two days.....Had permission to go this year, but could not work it into my schedule. Have you had a desire to attend? If so, maybe next year we could get a group of Georgians to accompany us to the great state of MA. Just a thought! I look forward to seeing you at GaETC in November. Best, Jerrie Hi Anne,
