Students use their personal blog for whatever they like…but we use basic classification to create spaces for them to post to thus creating separation (unique url, look, links, feed) for groups and courses (and topics). We’re always trying to make the blog more of a truly personal tool. So one problem is that students don’t necessarily want their academic entries mixed among their personal entries (for their friends to see when they visit or whatever). In Drupal a new node type is all that is needed, I think.

Since this is more of an aggregation strategy than a course blog, indeed the comments are indeed attached to the underlying posts. I hope this helps.

They built the blogs before courses started to use them… anyway, the way they handle an individual course blog is by pulling in tagged posts from individual blogs, as you’d like to do. However, the already all on a single architecture.

I’d love to know how you figure this out…
