      At this time my research is focussed on PD activities delivered on www.2learn2gether.ca in the form of mini-courses or Courselets.  I have numerous articles being presented at conferences this spring on the Courselets and their design, development and delivery.  Not much in the way of blogging is going on in these Courselets, but in one on Robotics in the Classroom I was able to design a specific learner use for the "Group blog"  This use was to record teacher learning and "inside your head" talk along a specific activity during the PD activity.  Some success for a few teachers, but overall the concept of blogging is not well accepted or understood (don't know which) by teachers involved in the Courselets.  However we are still in the very early pilot deliveries of Courselets - so this issue of "motivation to group blog" is a specific design question we are trying to solve...

      Are you familiar with the Group Blog concept in a "Group" structure within a Social Networking site?

      Are you interested in looking at one of these Courselets and see what we have set up?

      hello again Nathaniel,

      I think that blogging on the whole is a longer term offering, and it needs to be either aimed at individual would be bloggers to develop skills, or at groups to collaborate with others. The use of the blog for self-talk is quiet effective, but not every learner prefers to reflect in that manner, particularly if it will not be assessed for grading. In my opinion, if the blogging is not an integral part of the grading scheme, it will not be a successful activity.

      I would be interested in seeing an example of the courselets you work on. I am interested in using blogs for group activities, and would be interested in doing research on how students move from blogging within courses (group blogs) to within communities (mesh networks, or networks of practice).
