Blogging in the classroom: why your students should write online

Blogging in the classroom: why your students should write online | The *Official AndreasCY* Daily Magazine | Scoop.it

You see, back when search engines first started to become popular, it was easy to rank in the top spots for your keywords by stuffing your website full of keywords.
