What impressed me about this project is that the students’ ideas are quite well thought out and insightful.  Not all posts are accepted, so it’s clear that the selection process is thorough and thoughtful.  The blog I was thinking of creating for classroom use would have been different as I had planned to design one in which all students’ work would be accepted, but I like the idea of having a blog for which students’ work had to reach a certain level before being published.
