Knowledge, Learning, Community
Discussion of the use of blogs in the classroom, including a study of a particular classroom. The most interesting aspects were the discussion of gender differences (males had no problems with the technology, but females reported problems) and the argument that blogging promotes "liberal education goals". I find it interesting to look at the bibliography in papers like this to look at the whole range of alternative - and arguably derivative - scholarship we find in academic papers, as compared to what we see in the blogosphere itself. Via Accidental Pedagogy. More articles from the most recent Journal of Online Learning and Teaching.
