16. Notes on Moodle vs. Blogs
1) Moodle is restricted access.
Blogs are public on the web
2) Moodle requires log in. To read,
blogs do not.
3) Moodle format is static. Blog
format is relatively easily
customised

17. Blogging???
...is not that difficult to learn.
If you can use a word-processing
program like Word, you can blog.
