My students are blogging at http://www.rism.ac.th/class/hs/davidw

What is slightly special about this blog is that the subject matter is high school mathematics, and that the students are responsible for conveying that mathematics online. This has required them to learn how to create equation images and insert them into their posts.

Nice list of blogs.

Thanks for your feedback Bill. You can read more about the discussion here in the forum. As Andrew (cto) says “If you have any suggestions on how we could support Edublogs without advertising or requiring blogs to be upgraded to remove advertising we’d definitely love to hear them”.

I agree with Nancy above in regards to the advertisements. To me, the advertisements hyperlinked to words (like education and schools) now make Edublogs unusable in their “free” format. I like the product but feel like I am being forced to pay. I understand the need to raise funds, but in this economic climate, I will spend some time looking for alternatives to Edublogs. That’s too bad, as I spent a lot of time this summer teaching teachers how to use Edublogs, and at that time the advertisement wasn’t viral.

Thanks Ana – I either missed adding the link or yours was one of the blogs where I had trouble with the link.. I’ve made the changes so can I get you to check and make sure it is fine?

No problem about adding your blog to the list. Really pleased to have a wide range of blogs for people to check out.

Again, thanks a lot for adding us to your list!

Smiles,
Ana =)

Thanks for your quick response. The numbers you cited will impress and alert people to how much ground a blog is capable of covering.

As far as questions about the presentation, yes, any advice people may have regarding introducing teachers to blog creation (and convincing teachers how powerful a teacher blog is capable of becoming).

So, I am open to reading any experiences, both negative and positive, that can help me avoid stumbling around and damaging potential enthusiasm.

Again, Sue, thanks for the zippy comment!

Currently there is 2113 Subscribers via Feedburner with most people using Google Reader to subscribe with. There is also a large number who prefer by email – 424 by email.

Unlike most blogs I would say the site has a high number of people who are reading by visiting the blog. Currently daily site visits are between 300 to 600 per day.

For a comparison my personal blog:
Site visits per day fluctuate between 30 to 100 per day. I have 822 subscribers.

Please let me know what other information you would like or if you would like me to ask the readers to answer any questions for the presentation. Best of luck.

Next week, I will be giving my middle school’s English department a brief intro on creating teacher blogs.

To add a bit of juicy validity to this, I would like to create a Jing using your post (this post) that mentions my blog, and share it with the other teachers, as well as my administrators.

I would love to be able to tell them how many visitors you have received and how many feed subscribers The Edublogger currently reaches.

The more evidence of blog impact, the better!

Thanks,
Tim
