Kicked off a new project with two faculty today. Both are new to blogging and will have their students multi-blogging. And, it includes the entire range of blog support (not podcasting or vblogging, mind you) from setting up the blogs to teaching faculty and students to blog and use RSS readers to track entries.
This will also be my first time teaching faculty to use Google Reader. I’ve mentioned it before, but not to this level. One of the faculty has Gmail, so it makes sense to put both into Google Reader to maintain consistency so they can share ideas between each other.
Overall, I’m really looking forward to the project. Will post when the blogs go online.

Are these ipod folks or are they others who are getting on the web 2.0 bandwagon? That’s exciting! What do you mena by “multi-blogging”? One group blog, or each student with several blogs? I’d love to trade info with you on how ed folks are using blogs!
Terry,
Multi-blogs are weblogs with multiple authors. In this case, there are multiple group blogs, each with multiple students.
