<p>I agree that it depends how you're using it, I think for a project, it's best to use wiki where all the students can collaborate together on the same page. I use blogs for student portfolios where I could collaborate with parents and other educators or specialists, which is easier to read as you'll know who saids what. And I could always add 'pages' as a wiki.</p>

Could you describe how you've done online student portfolios? This is an idea I'm really wanting to use this year, but haven't decided how best to do it. Have you had success with it?

I agree, I'm not sure this should is an either or question. I've used both with my middle school students. As we move into the 2010-11 year we will be expanding the use of a variety of web based tools including Google Apps for Education, blogs (authored by students), wikis and online student portfolios. My students in particular like taking online tests because they get instant feedback.

I'd agree with Merle,<br />
I'm attempting to build a network of ex-students on ning (perhaps migrating to grou.ps before we have to pay!!).<br />
A blog (for esl students) is an excellent way for them to practise their writing and reading.<br />
With a wiki their is the benefit of peer correction, but when using a blog I think the fact the students have 'possession' of their work is more effective.<br />
As Merle says, it depends on how you want to use it. My students are learning English... for a science or math…
