A very useful tool for middle school and high school teachers, and maybe even later elementary grades.  Not very useful to me as a first grade teacher, but when students are asked to do research papers, and they start citing Wikipedia as a reliable source, teachers should utilize this.  :)

This is a very well, designed and user friendly classroom blogging tool. I have been using it with my fifth graders and it is working very well. I can review all of the content before allowing it to be posted. I can make comments and mark errors and re-submit it to the student to be corrected. I can even pull up a blog as an example and edit it in front of the class without telling them whose blog it is. Pretty cool :-)
