evaluating student blogging

Those teachers who require their students to blog for class might take a look at Dennis Jerz's brief entry titled "Framework for a Weblog Portfolio." For the first time in a long time, I'm teaching a writing class, and this semester I'm experimenting with student blogs, inspired largely by Chuck, who continues the practice in his Fall 2004 course titled "Rhetoric & Democracy.

Thanks for the link. I'm continuing my experiment with blogs in the classroom this semester, as well--this time with writing center tutors using a collective blog.
