| Why BlogsandBooks? |
Blogsandbooks allows you to "own" and operate a blog. You are the master of every aspect of your blog. You can easily add/delete and change student usernames and passwords. Your students do not have to belong to any other community or blog; just your own. As administrator of your blog you can assist your students with the registration, posting, and commenting process. More importantly, if a student has an issue with registering or signing on, your administrative rights grant you the access and control required to assist that student.
