- 10. The weekly discussions online helped me to talk things out and solve problems. It not only helped with explanations but they gave me more time to think and plan. I had more time to look things upon Google and base my opinions on specific things using what I found along with what others thought. They also helped me be more open minded..

- 11. Reading others’ posts helped contribute to my own ideas and combine them into one. And, they made me refine my own ideas better. Image Source: OpedagogenFlickrPhotostream

- 13. Reduced Anxiety “I’m a little shy in the classroom but I can read other comments and use theirs as a sample for writing my own.” “I could also compose my thoughts and write what I wanted whereas I get flustered or confused in class.” “when you’re in a community there is a feeling of comfort that arrives...it is easier to learn when you feel comfortable in your surroundings.” “If other people are on the site to share views and work, it makes you more comfortable to do the same thing.” “I feel like I talk differently online because I can compose my answers. I knew I wouldn’t sound stupid and it gave me time to edit my thoughts before sharing.” Image Source: Extra Ketchup’s FlickrPhotostream

Notes de l'éditeur
- What about the Classroom?
- Each project had issues related to access.
- Each project had issues related to access.
- Prompts Independent Research94% of students used resources NOT provided by the teacher as they participated in blog assignments
- Co-Construction of Knowledge“One benefit that the students brought to my attention was that they learned from reading their peers’ answers. I realized that I could compare the students’ work when they turned in other assignments, but most of the time students don’t have the opportunity to read other students’ responses.”---Bryant Reflection
- Promotes Higher Order ThinkingWhen modeling and support is provided!
- Format of the Prompt is Critically ImportantBRYANT“The format and topic of the prompts influenced the amount of internalization for the students, as well as impacting the amount of self-directed research the students were willing to initiate. “When the student had some control over their topic and format, their participation and quality of posts increased. The students asked more questions of one another and also generated more quality responses.”
- Prompt Style Fosters Different DiscussionsStudent Led discussion format led to most interactions among studentsGreater proportion of responses to initial post & then follow-up responses in comparison with other discussion typesIn fact, fewest number of initial posts since students were expected to be in a dialogue rather than simply posting their thoughts/reactionsTeacher Led discussion format led to more “on target” discussions. Well crafted (open) questions can lead to more responses that exhibit higher level thinking. Closed questions stifle discussion.Reflective Prompts Led to surface level reporting / analysis of readings. Format leads to a large number of “1st level” replies, but few follow-up replies. Effective reflection skills may take time and lots of modeling to use well.
