Blogging Parent Letter and Consent Form | Beyond School

  • Letter to parents introducing blogging as "connective reading and writing." Talks about benefits of blogging and about student judgment in privacy settings. Rather than dictating what students will do, there's room for individual differences.

Artichoke: The other is a cheaper thing, but the moths get into it.

  • Looking at blog comments as continuing conversation, with a draft rubric for self-assessment of blog comments. The rubric doesn't cover all kinds of comments, and I think perhaps it focuses too much on types of comments rather than the quality and/or appropriateness of the comments in a particular situation. This could still be a good guide for to help students craft substantive comments though.

Podagogy » Thinking about podcasting models - Podagogy

  • Ideas on structuring podcasts for teaching, moving beyond simply recording a lecture
     - christyinsdesign on 2007-01-29
  • In my opinion however, recording a lecture does not take full advantage of the medium’s potential. It would seem that supplemental information that takes the student past the basics provided in the lecture would provide a richer basis for reflection and dialog. Especially if our goal is to more deeply engage the student with the concepts in the course.

     - christyinsdesign on 2007-01-24
  • The idea behind Activity Centric Worksites is to use blogging tools to facilitate focused business communication. Instead of using a blog as a tool for one person to broadcast their thoughts on “whatever”, use blogs as a platform to help people within your company communicate about what they are doing for work. To make it easy to frame the conversation, provide structure around simple concepts that make sense for your company.
