George Siemens has posted an entry on his elearnspace blog with links to two short and very interesting PDF documents that detail some of the current practices of how people interact with different media types. Well worth taking the time to read.

Blog Example #10 – Professional Learning Community September 15, 2007
Posted by Matthew Woolums in Edublogs.add a comment
Professional learning communities are a terrific way for teachers to engage in a dialogue to improve the craft of their teaching. Too often, they are only effective when the participants are all gathered together in one place. Too often, there isn’t enough time to meet. A new Edublogs blog, In Practice, is one effort to provide a forum for a learning community, to keep the dialogue moving forward.
