They were so much more willing to go indepth than when they needed to talk (they seemed to keep on task far better too). Are you able to keep a blog in house (or on a school based server)? Apparently the Macs we have in our computer lab at school are supposed to be able to do this (not that my tech specialist has mentioned it or offered to set anything up - he just fussed that I was using a web-based blog). I made my blog administratively filtered and I was the administrator. That satisfied my principal, although if I can figure out how to set one up on our school server, I will most certainly do that.
