EduResources Weblog--Higher Education Resources Online
This weblog focuses on locating, evaluating, discussing, and providing guidelines to instructional resources for faculty and students in higher education. The emphasis is on free, shared, HE resources. Related topics and news (about commercial resources, K-12 resources, T&D resources, educational technology, digital libraries, distance learning, open source software, metadata standards, cognitive mapping, etc.) will also be discussed--along with occasional excursions into more distant miscellaneous topics in science, computing, and education. The EduResources Weblog operates in conjunction with a broader weblog called The Open Learner about using open knowledge resources across a diversity of subjects, levels, and interests for a wide range of learners and learning communities--students in schools and colleges, home schoolers, hobbyists, vocational learners, retirees, and others.

The tenth anniversary issue of the JCMC is devoted to articles about online communities and collaborative practices. "To celebrate, we offer our readers a double special issue on the themes of Online Communities, guest edited by Jenny Preece and Diane Maloney-Krichmar, and Computer-Mediated Collaborative Practices, edited by Caroline Haythorthwaite. The nine articles on Online Communities explore dynamics in communities of a wide array of types. Computer-Mediated Collaborative Practices contains seven articles analyzing collaboration in work and learning contexts. Each guest editor also contributed an introduction to the articles on their theme, for a total of 18 articles in this special issue." These JCMC articles show a fascinating range of practices and applications; they should be of especial interest to readers working with computer mediated instruction.
