does anyone have any guidance/resources on how to most effectively use a blog or wiki to compliment a college level course. Any suggestions? Anyone you know who is particularly effective at using this to enhance a course.
e.g., I am using blogs in a master's level course as a metacognitive journaling activity (http://etap687.edublogs.org), but am very nterested in what other's are doing and how, and what is known about best practices, research, etc.

We begin a new semester today and this will be the first time that I'll be using a wiki with one of my classes. It is a special topics seminar for graduate students. My intent is to provide them with the experience of building and participating in their own PLC, so they we'll play a key role in creating much of the course content (which will be housed on the wiki). You can learn more and even join us in this adventure at http://clifmims.wetpaint.com/page/Teaching+and+Learning+with+Web+2.0.
e.g., I am using blogs in a master's level course as a metacognitive journaling activity (http://etap687.edublogs.org), but am very nterested in what other's are doing and how, and what is known about best practices, research, etc.
any info would be fab.
thanks.

I'd also suggest looking through the many wikis linked from http://clifmims.wetpaint.com/page/Course+Topics. There are many teachers doing some good things listed on this page.
