Lecturers may require you to submit work on a blog. A blog is basically an online journal in which you can include any combination of text, images, links, multimedia, mashups, and attachments. Blogs are an effective way for you to share knowledge and materials created and collected in the course. 

As the owner of a blog, you can create entries and your instructor and classmates can add comments. A course or a group can also own a blog. In the group area, all members of a group can create entries for the same blog, building upon one another. Any course member can read and comment on a group blog, but can't create an entry if the user isn't a member of the group. Your lecturer can also offer comments and grade entries.
