How do you decide between Blogger and Class Blogmeister?
Blogger is a single blog. Many authors can submit blogs to one blogsite but each student would not have their own blog. This is a good choice for a teacher blog where students can comment. If your individual students create a blogspot, you would need to be a moderator on their blog in order to monitor what goes up.

Class Blogmeister is a class site. The teacher has one main blog and students each have individual blogs off the main blog page. You moderate all blogs and comments, if you choose. You own the site and the children join in. They do each have a blog url.
