I sure wouldn't go out there posting about what Melissa did in class today or what Ralph's mom told me. I also would avoid saying anything identifiable about your university or specific school district. Be careful, but don't be fearful.

I would say that protecting students' identities should be a consideration, but even if you don't get into student interactions, there should be plenty to post about. You should be careful, but don't be too anxious about it, I think.

I am curious, did anyone else receive any guidelines from your college about blogs? I am being warned to be very careful. I will just post on teaching strategies or things that are not specific to students or the school where I am teaching. Now I'm nervous about posting at all! Is anyone else facing these fears?

I can already tell that there are some things that don't change much about student teaching from what others have posted!
