Kidblogs is a blogging platform that allows teachers to create a secure classroom community where students can publish posts, participate in discussions, and share creative writing. To set up Kidblogs, teachers create a class account, add students, and select security settings. Some potential uses of Kidblogs in the classroom include having students take polls and graph results, follow characters on journeys, respond to writing prompts, post homework assignments, and take short quizzes and assessments. Key benefits are that Kidblogs provides a safe space for student publishing and writing, is easy to use, motivates creative and collaborative work, and connects classroom learning to the real world.
