Today is the official birth date of the Edublogs Magazine. It’s been almost a year from the idea-dancing-around-our-head stage, trying to come up with a way to create an umbrella blog that would bring together the exciting Edublogs community.
We wanted to feature bloggers and news from within the Edublogs Network represented by Edublogs, Learnerblogs, Uniblogs, and ESLblogs.
We wanted to provide a place where Edublog members could publish articles offering their special insights into education today, past, and the future of online education technologies.
We wanted to bring in educational experts and professionals to provide insights into their specialties for educators and students around the world, as well as the Edublogs community.
We also wanted to get help from top blogging professionals on how to blog from a personal and professional perspective.
It’s a big to do list, but we’re very excited about how we’ve brought it all together under one roof.
Currently, the Edublogs Magazine feature the following post categories on:
- Edublogs News
features the news, information, and resources found around the Edublogs community of bloggers. - Blogging Students
covers examples and interviews of students using blogs to communicate, learn, teach, fundraising, and more. - Blogging Teachers

I navigated over here through a series of fortunate events and I am so excited about this foundling site.
I just sent home a permission slip to all my students’ parents about starting a classroom blog — I was going to make it through the Worpress format and now I can see this site offers just what I am looking for.
The same passion I have for writing on a blog is infectuous. My son (9) has started a blog and now it appears I will be starting a blog in my classroom.
All I can say is I will be subscribing and watching where this vision goes … can I come along???

Great idea for this online mag.
It’s just another way that the Edublogs community can come together and share resources and knowledge.
