"Perusing this succinct, reader-friendly book feels like being invited into Will Richardson's restaurant for some fine dining and animated conversation. One of my favorite dishes: teachers at the center of their own learning networks."

Students are already familiar with the Blog format and the idea of adapting it to the classroom is a great way to create a comfortable learning environment. It will also allow me to have students comment on each other's posts in a way that might be more detailed than on a Discussion Board. Great resource.
