Paper Abstract:
|
Based on an empirical study on exploring the nature of blogging and learning by investigating higher education students
blogging experience, this paper seeks to address the key findings from two aspects: (1) the fundamental elements causing
students to blog, and (2) students learning experience by blogging. Besides this, it presents a review of recent studies
into blog usage in education and the research methods. It is hoped that the research will be of benefit to learners,
educators and educational organisations in better using learning technology and further promoting informal learning. |
