  15. Nuts & Bolts • The teacher will remain the admin of every student blog. • Students should not be the admin of any blog. They should be contributors or editors. • Student user accounts will need to use their NCWISE Id number for their username and students must use a WCPSS e-mail address • WCPSS e-mail accounts for students are simple to request: Principal must e-mail the help desk and indicate the teacher's name/class or indicate "whole school" if they want accounts for all students. No other information is needed. Information required for the accounts is pulled from NCWISE for them.
