This really impresses the students, but you have to make the blog public and share it with others to do this. Since there is moderation of comments, nothing will come up without your approval, so go for it.

This is the one place where students could interact. The responses, however, were on another page. Perhaps for that, and other reasons, the students did not respond much.
This is an example of a static web
page. I provides a lot of information, and what we are studying, links
to activities, but it lacks interactivity. The conversation is largely
one-way, to the students. The page can be updated, but not as quickly
as adding posts on a blog.
