<p>Hi Chris,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yes Blogger is more user-friendly, but Wordpress has more power. You can create more of a website around it, whereas blogger is geared to, well, blogging.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also, you can download wordpress and install it locally, if you have a server for it to run on.</p>

<p>I scanned your Global Cultural Exchange page on the wiki. It would be great if your students were to present in the GEC Student Strand about their experiences in your exchange! Have you looked at flatclassroomsprojects? I'm thinking this would be up your alley....!</p>

<p>Class projects, assignments and activities are all listed in the margin to the left. Each is a link to a sub-page where the specific assignment is introduced. On many of the pages there are also links for students to post reponses on the wiki.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Assignments have evolved over the course of the year, began by focusing on collaborative writing and gradually my focus has shifted to individual responses. We didn't get to every assignment/activity this year, the oldest assignments are at the top of the list and the more recent at the bottom.</p>
