Learning, teaching and research

I have decided what to do with this blog and Elgg. I am going to develop it into a resource for me to learn about how to use blogs in teaching my modules. It will be a collection of resources and information I find or that is passed on to me by friends and colleagues. It will be annotated as I go in terms of what I think are the main points I can take from each item. Hopefully others will add comments if they disagree with my summaries or think I have missed a significant idea or implication.

I hope to gradually organise it into a form that could be used as the basis of a staff development package (presentations, seminars, a handbook and a continually up-dated dynamic on-line resource) for using blogs in teaching and supporting/enabling learning. I hope in the process to get some insights and ideas on how Elgg might be used by students on their own ’self-education’ projects.
