Instructors are beginning to use blogs to replace the standard class Web page. Instructors post class times and rules, assignment notifications, suggested readings, and exercises within the blog.
Within the blog, instructors can link to Internet items that relate to their course and short essays directed specifically toward his\her students not mere annotations of interesting links.
Blogs are also being used to organize in-class discussions. This method allows students to get acquainted with each other better by visiting and reading blogs from other students. It is less threatening as they read the blog to discover their similarities and differences.
