Summary
In this chapter, we created the foundation that will support both teacher-led and student-led interaction. The instructor blog, appearing on the home page of the site, can give structure to the class and provide guidance to students. The student blogs, collected and displayed via the view we created, provides a place for students and teachers to see each other's work, and to provide feedback via comments.
In the upcoming chapters, we will learn how to use the blog to share audio, video, and pictures. The upcoming chapters will also demonstrate how these different media types can be used in concert to provide support for organized, structured, and student-led inquiry.
