An article I wrote a few months ago called “Weblogs: Learning in Public” is out now in On the Horizon, which is a strategic planning journal for the educational sector. It’s in a special issue edited by Drew Davidson, with lots of other papers about videogames and new media in education – I particularly like the one by Mia Consalvo about cheating and walkthroughs as educational techniques. The electronic version is subscribers only, but your library may have the paper version. If you want a copy, email me and I’ll email you the final version. Update: I reread the copyright form and it’s less draconian than I thought, allowing me to post a copy of my version (not their edited, laid out version) on my website. So here you go (that’s a PDF, btw)!
