Blogs -- a Definition

An edublog (educational blog) is written by someone with a stake in the educational process. Edublogs may be written by or for teachers. An edublog may invite administrators, teachers, students, and parents to comment and author posts. They can be written for educational instruction or written about educational policy. Communities of educators can gather their ideas to collaborate information on an edublog.
