I.  Open Homeroom is an experimental single classroom Web tool for one or more teachers.  In the very early stages of development, it could use your help.   Both testers and "improvers" are needed.

OH is meant to offer an affordable, powerful single-classroom tool to teachers who want to emphasize class communication and student portfolios (via blogs) more than quizzes and tests.

First, as I'm encouraging others to blog and write articles, I want to "walk" my "talk" by beginning a blog on iteachnet.org. Secondly, I want to clarify for myself and others what the difference is between blog-entries and Webzine2 articles. By definition, a blog is a diary or "log" entry on the Web. In practice, however, the distinction between a blog and an article, especially a newspaper column, is not so clear.
