Carnival of the Edublogs

It’s easy to be part of the Carnival. As a reader, you can visit the Carnival each week to catch up on the very latest and best blog posts on education from around the web. The easiest way to keep in touch with the Carnival is to subscribe to the Carnival RSS feed, at http://carnival.edublogs.org/feed/ (the last “/” is very important).

Contribute to the Carnival

By contributing to the Carnival, your best work will be read by a lot more readers than usual. All participants are welcome - you don’t need to be invited. You can contribute to the Carnival each week by emailing your best post of the week to carnival.edublogs@gmail.com.  If you’d like to be published in the next edition, get your contribution in by Thursday 9pm, Greenwich Mean Time, for publication by the following Monday.

If your entry is selected, you have an obligation to promote the Carnival by linking back to the host’s Carnival post in which they link to you. In the words used on the Carnival of the Mobilists site, “if you don’t, there will be no heavy reprisals, but you will be universally hated by all“.

Host a Carnival

Hosting a Carnival attracts the most readers to your site, as each contributor will promote your blog on their own site. The host each week will receive contributions and write a summary of articles; in other Carnivals, this has been done in some very creative ways, and hosts are free to adopt their own style and perspective on the presentation of their summary. However you choose to present your episode, ensure that it is posted at the latest on the Monday of the week in which you are rostered.

If you would like to host an episode, drop Leonard an email at carnival.edublogs@gmail.com to be added to the schedule!
