Knowledge, Learning, Community
Well worth reading is this interview with elearningpost's Maish Nichani and the subsequent discussion (you will have to register (free) to participate in the discussion. Nichani talks about the state of blogging in online learning. I love this observation, "So what happens that every month is that we see a pattern. One month we saw a pattern on learning objects. Almost in all publications everyone was talking about learning objects and how advantageous they are. Then a couple of months later, people started bashing learning objects and saying that these are not learning objects, but these are disposable learning objects." If you have a slower connection you want to be aware that the site automatically launches a sound file when you enter (most annoying) - you can find the media player to the right - click on the black square to shut it off. Large files like sound - even streaming sound - should always be an option on web pages.
