Krista, Yes, I have found the use of blogging really increases the individual voice of the students - I have published on my uses with my students in the Campus Technology publication, if you're interested. Dr. Ruth Reynard
Discussion Comment
melissa , Great! Do you use the capture and distribution potential as well? Dr. Ruth Reynard
Krista, Good points! Do you ave any specific examples with your students? Dr. Ruth Reynard
melissa , I'm assuming you're referring to lab time here? Yes, there is the application piece which usually requires demonstrations - technology can support and/or mediate the demonstration of skills as well - can you think of examples of that using presentation or projection technology?

Discussion Comment
melissa , How do you think it helps specifically? Do you think it raises engagement or more than that? Dr. Ruth Reynard
Bakhriya, Yes, the access is increased due to the connectivity options...the flexibility of students is something that is due to various delivery options but some students need more coaching and support to become effective flexible and self-directed learners. Dr. Ruth Reynard
Bakhriya, Can you expand your ideas a little more? Are you referring to design, dleivery, content, or all three? How do you think new technology changes things? Dr. Ruth Reynard
Peter, So, clearly, students need instructors to intervene and help guide their searches and uses of information. Dr. Ruth Reynard
