Why is it so Hard for Educators to Focus on Their Own Learning?
From the blog of Will Richardson. Thought provoking and provocative it asks as that whether in showing staff how to use e-learning tools we should show how the same member of staff can actually engage in their own learning while using these tools and in doing so they gain greater insight when they use the same tools with their students. I certainly to achieve this with blogs * but I might pay more attention to this when teaching the use of wikis and related e-learning.
* its not enough to simply read blogs while at the same time encouraging students to use them for learning when you do not actually blog yourself. Only when you use this tool do you truly become aware of its power for reflective learning.
