Our weekly round up of Edtech news will be followed this week by a community forum discussion. The community forum will begin around 8pmEDT (global times)
There have been some heated Edublog postings recently (links below)
concerning the virtues and pitfalls of different methods for
facilitating community development and discussion within the
Edublogospere. We'd like to host a discussion that addresses some of
the questions this discussion has raised.
- How can the edublogging community best help educators keep up with the
steady torrent of new educational tools, methods, and resources?
- What are the relative merits of blogging independently vs. being affiliated with a particular social network?
- How do we balance self-promotion and commercial interests with our participation in projects for the common good?
- What, if any, expectations are there for 'professional decorum' in edublogging?
We'll start the conversation with these questions and see where things take us. Everyone is welcome to join in. We're not expecting to come up with any definitive answers, but hopefully some live, interactive audio will make a
worthwhile contribution to the discussion.
