The goal is to reach some conclusions about our comfort levels and skills with best practices in the formation of shared intelligence, an important ingredient of social capital. This blog is in partnership with a wiki page and static web pages and any back channel email that participants want to send to each other. Read below. Your comments are essential! The essay that introduces blogging and new forms of sharing intelligence can be found at
New media addresses the challenges of growing
social capital in new ways. Four possible conclusions will follow from the study of blogs and their wider roll with other media. These may all be wrong or more need to be added. To add comments to the posts provided below is easy. Click the comment field; be bold; speak up. However, to initiate a new posting requires being added to the member list for this blog. Just email me (
houghton@email.wcu.edu) to request posting status.
This blog page should be used to share comments. After some period of time for each numbered comment, someone will need to click the
wiki link in the top frame, then find the EditText link near the bottom of the wiki page. Create a summary of the comments for each numbered section in the wiki page. You won't believe how easy it is to edit until you try it. After all four sections have become edited summaries in the wiki page, email should be sent to me as project administrator. For the final phase, I will copy the wiki page into the static page which is titled
conclusions in the top frame.
If only this blog page is visible, click
Formative-Summative and the frameset will appear that pulls together this partnership of media tools: blog, wiki and static pages.
