Publication Abstract

This paper attempts to explore the current use and effectiveness of Weblog services in higher  education. The views of the learners in this study toward utilizing Weblogs within their learning environment  were mixed. Their views can be divided in two groups; the first group of students were of the opinion that  utilizing Weblogs with their learning environment did not provide the interest they were expecting. The  second group of learners had an uncertain opinion as to whether Weblogs have the potential to improve their  learning experiences but they were quite satisfied with their use as a tool in higher education.
