“reflections on pedagogy: understanding adult learners’ experiences of weblogs”
has been blogging with students since 2001
purpose of study: investigate the variation in adult learners’ experiences of developing social networks via blogs
phenomenographic study
categories of response:
— developing networks is constrained by what the technology can do (blame the technology: weblog has held me back; couldn’t make it do what I wanted)
— developing networks is conditional to creating an engaging online identity (if I’m not engaging, no one will read me; bloggers need “fan clubs” to develop networks)
— developing networks is reliant upon proficient writing–having opinions and being able to articulate them (anxieties about writing)
— developing networks is about discovering others in similar fields of interest (where do I find them?)
— developing networks is about active participation, reading, writing, and exchanging opinions (they get it)
implications for how we teach, how we facilitate getting students through each stage

“an attention odyssey: social news reading and communities of interest”
(completely tuned out, alas; seems like it was a good presentation. i’ll have to go back and watch the video)
