Blog access will be granted by the graduate assistant after the first workshop, as long as you are on the class email list. Any questions or concerns about accessing and using the course blog may be directed to the graduate assistant. Contact info is on the home page.
This page goes over how to post your articles to the course blog. How to figure out what articles to post can be found in the “Textbooks and Additional Reading” page on the sidebar to your left. This is part of your Additional Reading Assignment for the course.
Dr. Loertscher is always hunting for the perfect open-source, cloud-based tools for use in this class. Specifically, we need a virtual space to collect and organize all of our research.
Our mission is to collaboratively build the INFO 266 Research Forum which you will have access to as an author. You have the freedom and authority to use this blog to post articles.
Because this is an on-going experiment, please provide feedback to the instructor at the end of the course (via email or SOTES) about how you liked or disliked using the blog as a tool for learning. Thank you!
The blog is quite large and should provide some guidance to everyone trying to read, view, and listen to a wide variety of topics connected with the course.
The blog will be our collaborative research depository and resource library. Here are some tips for sharing research:
Please limit one article or question per blog post. In other words, publish each item separately before posting a new one. This allows materials and conversations to be retrieved individually. You are free to post as many times as you have comments and materials to share.
When you share an article please include:
Your name: last, first.
The bibliographic citation, preferably in APA format.
A summary of the article in your own words (this may be as brief as you want it to be).
An evaluation or opinion of the article / research.
Labels, also known as tags, to make your posts more retrievable.
Use the label tab on the right to create your labels.
