Greetings! I am delighted that you are putting together a group blog experiment. As with the previous post, here is some shameless self-promotion... I was lucky enough to have the following articles on blogging-in-education published and would be happy to send them to you. Bookmarking the World: Weblog Applications in Education. Journal of Adolescent and Adult Literacy, April, 2002, 45(7), 2-7. Weblogs as an Emerging Genre in Higher Education, Journal of Computing in Higher Education, Spring, 2003. I'm happy that you plan to expand the academic literature on blogging! Best of luck-- Jo Ann Jo Ann Oravec Associate Professor College of Business and Economics University of Wisconsin-Whitewater -----Original Message----- From: Stephanie Jo Kent [mailto:steph@sover.net] Sent: Sun 11/17/2002 8:36 AM To: air-l@aoir.org Cc: Subject: [Air-l] online group dynamics Hello all - I just joined the list a week or so ago; I'm a first year doctoral student at UMass Amherst. I'm working on a project on surveillance technology in which I'm exploring stages of group development in a group blog. It is not an anonymous group, but an extension of a graduate course, so we all know each other and see each other face-to-face as well. I've been seeking literature on small group dynamics online - can anyone point me to anything specific? Maybe in organization/management or some other applied context? At this point, anything that seems remotely close would be a big help! Thanks in advance, steph _______________________________________________ Air-l mailing list Air-l@aoir.org http://www.aoir.org/mailman/listinfo/air-l
