Certainly could be used as a collaborative tool to discuss a book read or movie watched in class. Probably could be used as a “information pool” for a group of students are doing a research project. They could come to their own page and post updates on what they have found.

This is fabulous! It reminds me a lot of Edmodo but unlike Edmodo it could be made public like a blog! In a perfect world I’d like the ability to add this type of ‘page’ to any theme. I suppose one could create a new blog with this theme and then link from a standard blog to this type of blog, but ideally having it in any other blog would be perfect. Great work Edublogs!

Can you copy/paste embed code into this style of blog post?

You sure can. The updates, which look like the start of a new thread in this theme, works the same as all posts on Edubogs. You can add/edit from the dashboard which will allow you to embed the same as with any other theme.

I would use this as a collaborative tool – to allow pupils to have some input on how they can develop the school grounds or even have feedback on th school curriculum. This theme offers an easy way for school council to gather opinions from the school community. I like it!!

I am also a school librarian so I like the idea of using it as book discussion tool. So how do we get it?

The theme is one of our new themes available to all Pro blog users or free blogs that have had ads disabled by a Pro user. To find it, go to Appearance > Premium Themes in the dashboard.

I could use this with syudents, it appears user friendly in the layout.

I think this theme could cater to adult learners whose experience spans from being technological novices to those who are comfortable with the Facebook interface. As a business communication and career skills instructor in adult ed, I am impressed with the accessibility and features of this theme’s format.

I am a school librarian and I would use this as a book discussion tool. For example, on a previous blog (which I am no longer using because it is so cumbersome), I asked the kids under the Twilight thread if they would like to live forever.
