Direct linkFessakis, Georgios; Tatsis, Konstantinos; Dimitracopoulou, Angelique – Educational Technology & Society, 2008
The paper presents a case study of the educational exploitation of group blogging for the implementation of a "learning by design" activity. More specifically, a group of students used a blog as a communication and information management tool in the University course of ICT-enhanced Geometry learning activities. The analysis of the designed…
