Blogs enable me to investigate, create and publish content that I think is important. To extend my blog so that I incorporate more information, I am always searching for varied, reliable content on the web. Varied content enables me to receive information from a variety of disconnected sources so I can weigh the content and form my own opinion. Reliable content ensures that I am using reputable professionals with knowledge and expertise in their chosen area. The goal is to find and link or post the best information possible.
The three blogs listed below contain great information no teaching, learning, e-learning and instructional design. All three contain articles written by the blogger as well as links to other published articles. The blog pages are well organized and information is easy to find. These sites allow me to subscribe and comment on the blogger content. The first blog site is by Ferdinand Krauss. It provides a host of methods on how to teach in an e-learning environment. Approaches and examples make it a useful resources. The second blog s by Amit Garg. It is a reference guide for instructional designers. It contains a list of articles and blogs that must be read. This sit is fluid and keeps me up to date on the things I should know about. The third and final blog is by Bill Ferriter. His article on blogging and wikis was part of our resource list this week. I was introduced to Mr. Ferriter a year ago and was immediately impressed with the voice he provides in the area of technology infusion. He was added to my list because I want to hear what he has to sat and I want to introduce him to others!
