17. why?
Students are intellectually and pedagogically
conservative, so intend to make this strange for them.
Blogs as a creative open space, separate from
‘assessment’.
To encourage thinking out aloud, sharing, co–learning,
reflection and experimentation.
A ‘thick descriptive’ portfolio of learning.
Rupture the ‘assessment’ economy.
Value contribution and participation as its own reward.
