We are presenting on weblogs and learning in University of Utrecht in a few hours… You can access this post later at http://weblogintro.notlong.com
An overview:
Personal webpublishing refers to emerging technologies that enable people with very little technical knowledge to tap into the WWW as a medium for publication, social networking, and collaboration. One of these technologies, weblogs is increasingly used to support learning in different settings: from enabling self-organizing learning networks between professionals to providing infrastructure for organizing course materials and use as learning diaries and portfolios in educational settings. We will start our presentation from a “walkthrough” introduction of weblogs, demonstrate specific examples of weblog uses in educational settings and discuss impact of weblogs on learning.
