I just don't know how a teacher finds time to allow each student to blog during class time. So many classrooms either have no computers, other than for the teacher, or have not enough to go around. How do you completely utilize this tool and offer equal user time for everyone plus not completely eat up all of your instructional time?

Seriously, though. It's true that by the time new things get to us in schools (through all the bureaucracy) they are obsolete. The web offers so many free tools and the hard part is keeping up with the kids.

One of the problems with distance education in the classroom is engagement and using tools like these along with others will help improve upon the engagement there already.
