Hello all, I finally started using blogs for my BA students' Essay Writing Class! It is a new experience for us all, so bear with us while we blunder thru, but I may add that I'm proud of the efforts my students have put in, and I hope you feel moved to visit several of their blogs and honor us with your comments. I'm sure they will be delighted to have visitors! The URLs follow below (not all of them, but those who have already posted to their blogs; the rest will follow shortly, I hope). Hopefully, the English and typing mistakes will lessen after more experience, but since they are mostly new to typing (not to mention blogging!) and they are only sophomore students of English, I think they are doing pretty well.

I agree with Ale - keep this up in your posts and you'll soon see how popular your blog becomes.
It was funny to read your comments about the reverse order of posts - this was one of the things that annoyed me, when I first started blogging, but now it's one of the things that most appeals to me - it's great getting to a site and seeing the most current information first.
Look forward to reading more. Oh, and(if you haven't already done enough!)don't forget to sign up for our collective blog when you receive the invitation.
