As I’ve explained in earlier pieces, I periodically post “most popular” lists of websites that I think educators might find useful. Of course, there are a number of ways to gauge “popularity.” I just view these lists as opportunities to check-out some new sites, and find it interesting to see which ones might be particularly “popular.”

A year ago I posted about Scott McLeod’s analysis of the top 50 P-12 Education blogs, and thought newer readers might find it useful for me to share the list again as part of my “Most Popular” series.

I’ll share the top fifteen — at that time (I’m sure the ratings would look different today — perhaps Scott is preparing a new version?) — and you can go to Scott’s blog to see the rest.  He used Technorati ratings and other factors to make the determination.  His post is worth a visit, and his blog is worth reading regularly:
