One aspect of effective teaching and learning is the active participation of students, both in the classroom and outside the classroom. This project is designed to have students participate in course activities in a unique way: through online blogging. Blog is used widely by information technology professionals for information sharing and informal knowledge contribution. In this class, each student group will create a group blog site and contribute to the discussion by writing something related to the course content, and giving active feedback to other’s blog as well. This informational writing (compared to term papers) is an effective and efficient way of learning and knowledge sharing.
