The comments about college papers coming back to haunt you, brought a chuckle. I've had one of my college papers online for 7 years posted by one of my profs. In the long run, it's been useful because people cite it regularly and I've published articles in journals because an editor liked what I wrote. I've had people track me down so they can discuss the paper.

 

I have a medical education blog running out of a university setting and every day I get comments that are essentially buy viagra or look at my porn site. Luckily I have the ability to check comments before posting them.

I think Blogs and Wiki's are very different. Blogs are like a diary/journal where entries are organized by days. Wiki's are like a webpage with multiple editors, maybe more like a filing system that is constantly updated.

Hello all, looking forward to this session. I work at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon. I am particularly interested in technology as a teaching tool.

My devil's advocate hat on again. E-learning originally meant at a distance, non-campus access to education. How do you provide training to student's who aren't on campus?
