  Hello, I am trying to build a WordPress wherein my students would be able to post their own discussion-post blogs weekly and I don’t know how to do this.

  Site: https://viss501.wordpress.com.
  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  Hi there,

  I see you already have a site, so you’re halfway there :)

  If you want your students to be able to create their own posts on that site, next each student will first need to create their own WordPress.com account:

  https://wordpress.com/start/account/user/

  Once they’ve created their accounts, you can invite them in the Author user role – Authors can create, publish and edit their own blog posts, but they can’t change site settings, create pages, or edit posts created by someone else.
