One of my professional goals every year is to try and incorporate new technologies into my courses. A couple years ago I decided to have students create a Dissertation Blog. The Dissertation Blog contains
information related to a student's dissertation, whether it is an article
review, a description of the problem statement, ideas for data collection and
potential participants, information from discussion posts, essentially whatever
the student wants. It gives students a place that contains all the
information related to their dissertation topic. Students are required to
publish their blogs and update them as often as possible. As a requirement of the MOI course students are required to post four times throughout the semester. It is hoped that by
publishing the information, others will comment on the blogs, and provide
valuable information on the topic. Please feel free to share you comments, suggestions,
or experiences!!!
