The above points to the powerpoint slides for an online presentation I just gave to the Alberta Distance Education and Training Association (ADETA<\/a>). Likely nothing new there for the old hands, but I promised James I would post it once it was done.

I tried to build on the work I did a few years back on the ‘Matrix of Uses’ for blogs in education<\/a> – truth be told I haven’t spent a lot of time since then focusing on the issue, so don’t know if my thinking has progressed that far.<\/p>\n

In a nutshell, my messages were
\n– focus on ‘blogging’ as process and not ‘blog’ as noun
\n– blogging is important in representing a number of significant ‘firsts’ (easy XML publishing tool, easy personal<\/em> publishing, networked writing, easy way to create identity online)
\n– yet important to learn the lessons these ‘firsts’ teach irregardless of the specific manifestations (I know I’ll catch flak for that one)
\n– represent a move towards bringing our educational life online<\/em> and are online lives<\/em> together (for better or worse, you decide)<\/p>\n

It’s hard when you don’t know your audience\/can’t even see<\/em> your audience. I ended up with too much background and not enough time for the meat. Maybe someday there will be enough awareness of blogs as a phenomenom that all of us can forsake all the introductory comments, but it still feels fringe enough to me when I talk to educators ‘on the ground,’ so to speak, that I feel compelled to include it in these kinds of talks. – SWL<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
