Cognitive Scaffolding for Building Knowledge

I have been posting for some time on the Landing, and I would like a means of documenting the review of these archived posts. This would help me improve my writing, and reveal areas to pay extra attention to in future.

I would also like to see how others view the posts, and how useful they have been, and get some feedback.

Thus, I'd like to suggest a design change in the "write a blog post" page template.

I recognize how complex the templates are, and recognize that introducing a way of assessing resource annotation posts might seem restrictive; if possible, I suggest a means of aggregating the different versions of checklists, templates and rubrics put together by students, faculty and researchers into an assessment bank that can be accessed through the Review this post link (in the template above).

Not having any structured assessment is no better than having too many rules; if a selection of templates, checklists, and rubrics could be made available for learners, to choose to use as they prefer, then it would a great advantage for them when they can review their learning and progress for the final e-portfolio reflections towards the end of their program.
