    Found on the Academic Commons site, I believe this is one of the more relevant articles regarding what the future of VineOnline may look like. This article is broken down into six sections, each asking poignant questions about problems that VineOnline could face in the future. The article uses Ionic VIPEr as the platform to develop solutions to these questions.

Writing With Web Logs - 0 views

  • If the fear of giving students an open forum to publish to their personal Web pages without an editor's approval keeps schools from exploring Web logs, consider that self-publishing encourages ownership and responsibility for content. UserLand COO John Robb notes, "Web logs are attached to an individual in the way a discussion board isn't. There are rules to using a Web log. If students break them, they can lose their site."
  • Creating online communities where student writing takes center stage means inviting audiences to read and reflect on published work. For educators, this involves reaching out into virtual and professional communities for collaborative opportunities. For instance, working writers and journalists could volunteer to serve as editors of student blogs. Additionally, alliances between K-12 and higher education would benefit preservice teachers who could gain valuable teaching and technology experience responding to student blogs, while students would benefit from having reliable readers critiquing and encouraging their work.
  • Content management platforms on which blogs are built make this entire process easier and more efficient. But while new uses of Web-based applications can make writing more real for students, educators will still need to consider how to evaluate what happens when students write online.

  • Start slowly by asking students to post once a week in response to a specific assignment. Allow them to customize and personalize their site as much as their Web log application and school policies will allow. With that freedom comes responsibility, so spend a class drafting the rules for publishing to their sites. Have each student sign a copy, and keep it on file.
  • Optimize the journal format by evaluating student writing over time, not just in one high-pressure testing event. Schedule several formal assessments during the school year at which time you can give a term grade that will be averaged with grades from subsequent evaluations.
  • Co-authors Stephen Valentine, a finalist in this year's T&L Ed Tech Leaders of the Year program, and Gray Smith write about this challenge in Writing in a Wired World: Improving Student Writing Using a Computer, forthcoming from Teacher Created Materials. To encourage substantive discussion in student message board communication, they've developed conversation assessments using a five-point rubric that outlines the key criteria for determining a student's grade, including use of evidence, engagement with the text, and whether or not a student responded thoughtfully.
  • Use models. Bookmark examples of well-written blogs. Take a class period to discuss what an effective post looks like. The same goes for examples of helpful reader response. If you use discussion board features to workshop students' writing, you also need to guide and reward the difficult work of learning how to give constructive criticism.

    "The FRC (Folklike Resource Center) houses an extensive archive containing a wide variety of materials in multiple formats. The project addresses two goals. The first goal involves transferring all of these analog formats into a more stable digital medium. This requires the digitization of thousands of photographs and slides, hundreds of hours of analog audio and video documentation. The second goal - user accessibility. Website visitors will now have unprecedented access to the archive through audio, video, and image-based media. Never before has the material housed in the FRC been available to such a wide audience."
