Research blogs and wikis
I’ve been playing around trying to find the right format to guide our seniors through their semester-long culminating research experience. My old research pathfinder template just didn’t model the experience exactly as I liked. It offered no opportunity for comments or collaboration or easy editing and project management. So I moved it to blog format and hope that students will use it to plan, log, and reflect on their own research journeys: http://researchlogtemplate.edublogs.org.
I also started playing with wikipathfinders. Planetpathfinder.wikispaces.org and elementpathfinder.wikispaces.org are in skeletal form right now. I need to annotate them and add much more content. Please feel free to edit these wiki style. (I am hoping students will join in too.) Write me if you’d like the password!
I welcome your suggestions.
