AfL and Blogging
A Blog about AfL and Blogging – This was linked to the AfL blog … might be useful for my research!
I’ve decided to add some more links below … with thanks, once again, to Ewan McIntosh, and this time his del.icio.us page! I suspect there will be a few more as I have time to search for useful blogs. Our group were a bit underwhelmed by some of the blogs and websites that we looked at on Monday, and I think some people still need a bit of convincing that blogs can be helpful in supporting T&L … I hope some of these links can be persuasive!
St Mary’s Bannockburn Blog – the key here is that comments are not moderated until after pupils have all completed their answers, so they can’t copy each other’s ideas. However, once the comments have been moderated, they can obviously add more ideas and comments on each other’s comments!
A Student’s Blog – A great example of a very organised pupil using a blog to support her own learning.
Outside the Cave – a New York based blog, reflecting on pupil blogging to support co-operative group work.

me thinks some these posts are a wee bit short! but thye make up the numbers (LOL)
Ewan McIntoshs guardian article and comments is quite good.
I was just thinking that there will be some great research papers and anecdotes for you under my own blog’s assessment category, as well as in my delicious links (which may be easier to find exactly what you want). You’ll find that on the sidebar of the blog, too.
I have added you as a link. lets hope the technorati spider sees it
You heard from Ewan McIntosh!
Thanks, Ewan, for the links. They will be really useful in my Literature Review section of my research as well as in giving me ideas for my research project!
Lloyd, thanks for the link!
