If I already have a sharepoint site, is Blogging preferable to using Shared Documents on Sharepoint?
Well, that's the question. So to set up an experiment, I should have students use both services to post documents and collaborate or peer review from there. In each case, I'll try to measure the value of the two methods. I want to see how easy this is for students to access, how well I can monitor their progress, how beneficial and meaningful their collaboration is, how effective my interim contents are, and how convenient and secure file maintenance is. Then I can decide which system to use in my classes. I like the Google because it does not rely on the students' owning programs and seems a little more intuitive than Microsoft Document Workspace. But maybe the workspace is good, too. We shall see soon.
On Friday I will have the students use both programs for the first time. More to come.
