NIST is using Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 for staff to develop an online learning platform. One of the features of WSS3.0 is the built in Blog feature. This is a great way to supervise students doing a project the I.B. like the Personal Project or Extended Essay. The students need to keep a process journal – this can now be done online in their Blog and teachers can continue to monitor students’ progress and comment on their work, even during the holidays.
