I have just been asked by one of our Course Leaders if it would be
possible for their students to create 'blogs' within Blackboard. After
a little research I found a tool called Journal LX which is being used
by a few Universities in the States. The pricing on this does not seem
too outrageous, but I was wondering whether any other institutions are
running anything similar (ideally free), or have found another way of
providing this facility?
I am not too keen to use an Internet blog site, as we would have little
or no control over who and what could be posted to it (as I understand
it).
Any help/feedback would be greatly appreciated.
