Shaping Light

Nancy, Ron Bramhall, Mark Blaine and Andrew Bonamici

In case you are wondering why I’m encouraging students to blog, please see this recorded video. My part starting at 36 minutes into this 1 hour presentation + ~ 1 hour of Q&A, I focus on transitioning from presentation portfolios to reflective journals. I explain how I see opening up the university doors with the Web, and lessons learned about design collaboration.

“As higher education continues to move forward on incorporating blogging into the classroom, what are the implications for instruction at the University of Oregon? Join a panel of faculty and instructors who are currently using the UO’s WordPress blogging technology to supplement instructional practices. Areas of instruction such as student journaling, creative writing, eportfolios, and course management will be discussed.”
