A Moodle (2.5) Activity module that manages the process of students maintaining an individual learning journal using their choice of blog (or other RSS/ATOM generating service).
Feb 2016: Removed use of add_to_log and migrated to using the new event-based logging
Initial move to using nested tabs for the coordinator/marker interface. Pre-cursor to more work later.
Also modified interface to talk about "prompts", rather than "questions". i.e. students have to respond to prompts for blogging, not questions.
Any known issues (including future functionality plans) are recorded on github here
Feel free to add issues that you find. Or even just ask questions.
BIM is an activity module for Moodle. It provides support for teaching staff to manage, mark and comment (in a private way) on individual student blogs that are hosted on external blog engines.
It has been typically used to manage students maintaining their own reflective/learning journal.

Some more detailed (perhaps out of date) instructions on installation can be found on the web
In short, go to a course site and add a BIM activity. Follow online help from there.
Some videos created for BIM 1.0 still provide a useful introduction to using BIM
There are also two videos for staff marking a BIM activity
