    Blogs can be used to facilitate teaching and embed learning. A blog is a personal website organized like a journal with dated entries displayed from most recent to oldest. Setting up a blog using services like Typepad, Wordpress, or Blogger allows sharing of opinions and interconnected knowledge, giving students a sense of ownership that motivates learning. Benefits also include immediate feedback from both local and worldwide audiences, as well as archiving class information and enabling interactive multimedia experiences. Instructors should establish codes of practice and vigilantly monitor for cyberbullying.
