Changes are a Comin
Posted by Tyler Wall in Uncategorized on October 8th, 2009
You may have noticed a lull in the posts for this blog recently, work has kept me very busy and I have been doing a great amount of research as well. I plan on restructuring the format in which I deliver my blog posts to make a few things better for you.
- I plan on having someone edit my posts, although this may not happen all the time.
- I plan on adding things to a wiki style spreadsheet with predetermined criteria for evaluating a web tools usefulness to education. This chart will be viewable in most posts and also allow you to add tools to it and evaluate it on the pre-existing criteria in the spreadsheet. I don’t want my blog to be a microcosm of information that I push out to whoever, I really see this as being our resource for web tools to facilitate educators who want to leverage these great free tools to make courses more accessible to students.
- Each post will be crafted with a bit more care and have a predesigned format that should make it easier to determine if it is useful to you at a glance.
- I will also be working on the look of it to make the text that is there more readable. I plan on letting a bit more about who I am seep into my posts. The point of this is so that you can see where I am coming from, my skills, background and passions. I am also hoping that this makes you feel more comfortable posting comments.
- I also want to find out what you want, I have always said that what I do is problem solve and this blog is intended to be a resource of problems solved with Web 2.0 tools that instructors can use as inspiration. If you have a classrom problem and think that there may be a Web 2.0 solution for it then let me know about it and I will try and solve it.
So keep a lookout for new posts that will look better, read better, and include more of you in them.
