Subject: Teacher blogs - privacy and disclaimers?

Hi

Several of our teachers are beginning to make blogs using off-campus
servers. They want some guidelines about privacy and other legal
issues.
They understand that posting photos and names is not good but do other
schools have other smart suggestions. I know I have seen disclaimers on
teachers' blog- along the lines of -the content and ideas are solely
those of the teacher, not of the school.

Thanks for your experience and ideas.
