Ginger at Almost Audacious IT ran a blog workshop aimed at faculty recently, for which she produced the above hysterical graphic. Ginger says “I just swiped the graphic from the classic ‘The Blob’ movie and did some magic on it in Flash by tracing the bitmap. ” The ‘just’ sounds a bit modest to me - this perfectly captures the frenzied pitch that has accompanied a lot of the blog hype of late. - SWL
The page, Blogs in Education, that Ginger created for her faculty is great. The incredible graphic is there! Her content includes:
- options for instructors using blogs
- options for students using blogs in your courses
- articles about blogging
- sample blogs
- Blog writing tools
- aggregators
- tools for Advanced Blogging
It’s great to get all these different perspectives from the different people who are creating weblog workshops. Thanks to Scott for the link and to Ginger for sharing her workshop!
