“Blogging” as a Tool in Education
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper discussing Weblogs’ applicability to education. Weblogs can be highly useful in a variety of educational settings, either as being supplemental to course content or as providing a launching pad for further learning and discussion. They can diminish the anonymity factor inherent in many Internet-based communications, while yet giving a greater voice to those less likely to contribute in the physical setting. Weblogs can be formal outgrowths of administrative function or provide an informal gathering place antithetical to traditional classroom structure. In short, the benefits possible from the use of Weblogs are immense, and can add great value to education, both in function and in outcome. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
