Content:
More and more distributed online learning groups and communities are adopting blogs as their community platform - intentionally and sometimes by chance. Some efforts are structured and others are ad hoc formations that emerge "between" a number of blogs.
- What are these communities discovering?
- How does the blog interface differ from email lists and web forums and with what implications?
- What are the pros and cons of using blog technology for learning communities?
- What is the community perspective of blogs?
Hear what Nancy has to say and then discuss ideas with her and others involved in the videoconference. You will also be able to participate in a discussion list pre- and post- conference for sharing of ideas and resources.
