Why Let Our Students Blog?

Several days ago Randy de Jong (fellow SLL2.0 team member) posted a question on the High School group on TeacherLibrarian Ning about getting permission to open blogs and wikis for use by students and teachers at his school. In one of the replies, there was a link to a wiki that included this video created by Rachael Boyd, a teacher in New Zealand. This is a great tool to use at any level of school.
