Blogs/Wikis

Well, truthfully, it has been a frustrating week from a blogging sense.  I have emailed several people trying to get the assignment with no luck but now have receive information about it form our instructor. 
And on a technical side two of my computers at home with not allow the blogger.com website to come up our computer. Not matter what system we are using.  Well with that said I found that the Ferriter reading was a quite helpful resource.

I believe some of these blogs/phlogs willl just completely rejected or not read.  Others will or might have a profound impact on the intructional society, as well as,  the learning society.  I completely agree with Ferriter that it is nice to be able to read/learn/understand what peers around one is saying about the same sort of subjects.  With that said, blogging is basically one mans' diary that is just happened to be shared.

Now not everyone will agree on what is written but that is what learning is all about.  Having to questions others sayings, teachings, and motives.  I believe this article has a lot of great information in it about how to reference other sites.  I am particaularly interested in the (www.edublogs.org). I have a feeling in the future I could use this site or one like it to really get to know my students, as well as, my peers and study groups. 

I believe a wiki would be great for a group activity, say in high school, to be able to through a bunch of information together on what each person is supposed to go over with in the project. Once all the information, ideas are collected that they can come together and talk/analyze their soon to be presentation. 

I think blogs/wikis will be a great tool of progressive learning for peers, students and teachers alike.
