Hi There,
I am hoping you will be able to respond to this re-sent email as we are running low on time J I realise you are probably too busy – as we are also J and so I’m re-sending this email to emphasise our need – am being a squeaky wheel!
I’m writing a report for a project that comes under the title “new practices in flexible learning” which is a podcasting trial amongst teacher’s of adults .. we have/had funding to run a podcasting pilot.. and now things are winding up..
The body funding the project does not allow hyperlinks unless we have the permission of the website owner. Therefore I am seeking your permission to cite..

Yours truly

[...] But, back to the Exchange place … the tool that drives this and all the other blogs is WordPress — IMHO, the best single user blogging tool available (did I mention its free?). It is so easy to install and get running. I used this instead of my University’s Learning Management System (LMS), ANGEL last fall and my students loved it. We looked at why they did and it just blew me away how much more they used the space than the “old-fashioned” message boards of the past. I have posted about some of these experiences in my Learning & Innovation blog, so head over to see some results. Interesting stuff. If you gave each student a space like this (or even, dare I say a Blogger space), let them respond to interesting questions, encourage them to write about what is meaningful to them, and them put a single access point at the front end in place (an aggregator) you’d have a very powerful, semi permanent learning environment. What do I mean by that? My goal with using a blog to encourage discussion last semester was to start a longitudinal space for students to use semester after semester. In the LMS world, once you finish the semester, the space is locked down and unusable by new members of your courses. Why must we start every semester from scratch? Why can’t our students stand on the shoulders of their previous peers? I think they can — but the tools have to support it. [...]
