Short Description

Blogs are valuable tools for college educators. Blogging is a great way to teach students not only about writing but also about audience awareness, intellectual property, and copyright issues. Blogging opens up an entire new world to writing teachers, and almost any student from the first year composition student to the graduate professional writing student can learn from blogging.
