Say hello. Wonder why you're here. Never come back again because there are too, too many papers to grade.

Worked today on my computer class....it's called "Computer Networking in Communication Disorders" and has a number of goals but if I tell you that the focus is on learning technological skills in the context of specific content that might be enough for you to follow me here. If not, you can see the goals in my yet unfinished syllabus. The goals I'm pretty solid on (with the exception of oral communication skills as having this class in the summer doesn't allow time for oral presentations of their work).
In the past, I've used a mailing list with a hypermail archive hosted by our university. They took away that archive utility, replaced it with a much inferior one and I don't plan to use it. I spent the better part of the morning debating as to whether or not I should use yahoogroups.com or the discussion forums in webct (available through the university). The reason I balk at using webct is
- the university shoved it down our throats and I always balk at something that is shoved down my throat (OK, so not the most logical reason, but it's there and I can't deny it)
- if this class is to help students use the Internet as professional development tools they will not be using webct when they aren't enrolled in this class...on the other hand, there are several professional discussion groups I belong to that are hosted at yahoogroups.com or at similar type sites
- I much prefer getting email as having to login to webct to check and see if anyone has posted anything...
The other thing I'm wondering about is how to make use of, or if to make use of, the discussion options in the blog itself. Has anyone used this with a class...or at least with numbers of about 14?

This is the heart of the site, where practioners, over time, ask themselves hard questions about blogs and writing and learning. If this department grows, the others (aside from the Help with blogs Dept.) become peripheral, unnecessary.

This is a newbies dept. for questions related to any cms that teachers are using. Very, very basic questions (Read: "This is a dumb question, but...") are not only allowed; they're encouraged, should actually dominate.

A place to post items from the wide, constantly changing, and often arcane world of blogging and cms-ing and kms-ing and lms-ing and, in general, learning with technology. This is done well elsewhere - SiT, the shiftedLibrarian, IU folks, schoolBlogs, , Sam d., Middlebury, etc., etc.- so maybe this is just a list of recommended sites. Or maybe we don't need this department.

Quaker model. Somebody has got to be able to slow things down, clarify issues, calm the commons, and show folks to the door when they need some air.
