Setting up a Blog List for Easy Access to Students' Blogs

If you want to make sure to read all new posts, you can set up a blog list with only your students' blogs.  (Optionally, you can add a Feed Gadget.) Note that until student's post their first entries, clicking on the blog takes you to the rss feed and not directly to the blog.

Here's how:

1. Add a Blog List Gadget. (Go to Design>Layout> Add a Gadget> Blog List)
2. Click + and then indicate that you want to add a blog. Then paste the address of each each blog into the list.
3. Save the Gadget.

When you want to add more blogs, you can do it directly from your Blog's main page--as long as you are logged into your account.
