Blogs and Journals in Blackboard look and behave in similar ways. They both provide Blog like features and functionalities. The key difference between the two is that Blogs are shared within the course, and journals are usually private. You can have any number.Sep 25, 2015
What is a Blackboard Blog? A Blog is a collaborative tool that allows students to post their personal reflection about the course or discuss and analyze course related materials. Blogs are an effective means of sharing the knowledge and materials collected and created by the group with the rest of the course.Oct 5, 2016
Blogs are relatively new when compared to discussion boards. Blogs or “web logs” originally emerged as a way on the Web for individuals or groups to post a kind of ongoing journal. So, blogs, unlike discussion boards, are more focused on a chronology of information, displaying the most current “posts” first.Jun 1, 2009
NOTE: Blogs that are made 'public' in Blackboard are only available to the students registered in the course. A journal, like a diary, is for recording personal reflections. By default, journals in Blackboard are private between a student and instructor, but they can be shared if the instructor wishes.
