Bodil Hernesvold's List: Engelsk

• • Old tradition. Unity. Self.
• often value coherence and authenticity
• higher education
• generative digital reflective writing practices
• reflective journal writing as a site of “surveillance and an exercise of pastoral power”
• meaning-making
• “webness”
• additional complexities
• paradoxical
• digital contexts and practices
• speed, fragmentation and remixability
• “reflective practitioners”
• self-disclosure,
• rather than as a complex genre requiring sophisticated literacy practices
• diaries, logs and  portfolios
• equivalent
• to its offline counterpart.
• technological rather than conceptual
• break down
• There is an often tacit assumption about the kind of self doing the reflecting: it is individual, autonomous, consistent, but most of all amenable to development and progression through effort and direction
• doubt
• individual’s active engagement to examine his or her own emotional or cognitive responses to situations or experiences
• cognitive activity
• theoretical sources
• reflective practices
• simple mental process”
• consideration
• “truth”
• self-exposure and examination
• evidence progress and change
• writing online destabilizes these humanist ideals
• digital education
• questions
• audience
• personal things
• continue
• identity did you construct
• ‘authentic’
• Who owns the reflective spaces students use
• denial, caution, and consent, as well as rejection
• private and safe
• anxious about or unfamiliar with technology
• avoid losing control of their message online
• risky and “live”
• when she was sure of what she wanted to say
• disappear onto the internet at any time
• online presences
• the control she had over her digital persona
• privacy and display
• choose to publish it.
• arker parts
• confidentiality
• The line between what is desired by teachers, and what is forbidden, is fuzzy.
• policed boundaries
• damage students’ confidence in their reflective spaces,
• feel safe
• downplaying thorny issues that come with doing this work online
• being too open
• tensions
• humanist notions of reflective practice
• a trace.
• out-of-control
• versions
• The rules can change,
• digital reflective self (or fragments of this self)
• other
• intended,
• authenticity
• we must consider what exactly we are compelling, and assessing
• “origin”
• • Ideen om et sammenhengende, autentisk hele representert f.eks på en blogg er ikke sann; kjernen eller utgangspunktet er komplekst, en skiftende samling av folk, praksiser og teknologier.
• rom which reflective writing flows is not a student’s “authentic self”, but a complex and shifting assemblage of people, practices and technologies
• The combination of fragmentation and  persistence of the database suggests a radically altered subjectivity
• The “self” is destabilized by digital representations
• little control
• memory
• the databased selves produce us
• replicated, divided, remixed and radically recontextualized:
• either ignore possible danger, or address it by refusing to disclose or by rehearsing their narratives offline to perfect them before entrusting them to the permanence of the web.
• meaning making and a pedagogy,
• mystery,
• The conclusion of this paper proposes the “placeholder” as a pedagogical move towards such a possibility.
• “placeholder”
• “multiple contexts” from which student writing emerges
• fragments
• fragmented reflection
• “networked self”
• “symphonic self”
• “cultivate connections”
• intentionally 

   

    (

   

   ibid 

   

   ), with particular, short-term, goals in mind
• collection
• add, adjust and remix
• fragmented connections
• ymphonic self
• • iterative: repetitive, frequent
• integration and synthesis
• long-term narrative
• iterative coherence
• stable identity and set of values:
• “unconstrained author of meaning and action”
• develop their “whole person”
• self-representation is unstable at best
• taggable, searchable, remixable fragment of content
• text, image, sound, or a mixture
• aesthetic object
• spectacle

   

    of reflection
• responsible experimental gatherings of things that matter
• traces of ‘self’ in a placeholder
• there is no original
• through deliberate selection and display, through the workings of a search engine or serendipitous collection of fragments
• brevity, surface and speed
• “gathering”
• subject and object.
• remix-agents
• agents of the present
• from one place to another without traversing time
• I am producing a link
• Showing students how to tag the content they create or curate in a digital space
• one that is instantly accessible through time and context, and available for reuse or remixing
• collection of web content
• brings the past into the present
• implementing practices more appropriate to digital ways of working
• tagging
• producers and critics, as well as consumers
• of digital texts and digital modes of meaning-making and self-representation
• Online reflective practices that deal with complexity, fragmentation, remix and the collapse of time can provide much needed new perspectives through which to make reflective writing work more critically and creatively in higher education
