Safety Safety Safety

We must educate our kids about the dangers on the internet, not shield them from those dangers. If parents and teachers don't work together to educate students about the internet, who will?
Blogging will require rules and supervision.
Stephen Lazar has created a lesson plan on How To Blog
Bud the Teacher and Darren Kuropatwa have excellent guidelines for blogging.
Parents must be included. Bud the Teacher has an excellent springboard for ideas on how to include parents on his wiki.
Know that problems will arise. Kristin, a blogging teacher, is working through her problems here.
Also know that blog hosting sites are willing to help. Find the site that can provide what you need. Ask them how you can remove external links and/or ads from your blog.

I really like the way you are utilizing what we are discussing behind closed doors on Tapped In to help others in a more public venue like your blog. This is an excellent first post -- I can't wait to read more and more.

Also, your blog roll is very impressive. I read many of the same people.
