Good news: our proposal for a simposia on weblogs and learning at EdMedia04 has been accepted. I’m looking forward: it’s going to be a good crowd and lots of interesting conversations.
For the simposia I’m preparing a paper/presentation on learning from reading weblog, but I’m not happy with its title and abstract. I’ll invent something better, but here is my plans so far:
- I’m curious to know what weblog reading does to us. I’m thinking about learning effects of reading weblogs, learning in a wide sense, close to changing.
- I don’t like writing purely theorethical stuff, so I’m working on data collection instruments (thinking of survey/interviews/something else). You can expect my begging for participation in a few weeks :)
- Hopefully, I can connect this study with research on implicit learning and lurking, and develop a better understanding of weblog networking and weblog apprenticeship.
