writing to inform, and be formed
Hi Doc,
Three or four years ago I wrote a piece (here) that picked up on something you had written, and I sent you a copy. You were kind enough to link to it and reply, telling me I should be blogging. I thought, who has the time? Not me. Then Jon Udell wrote about 'professional blogs' and caught my ear, especially when he suggested that people who work full-time shouldn't be expected to write every day on their blogs. So I shifted my .Mac homepage over to a WordPress blog, and began.
Now I've got my Grade 8 students blogging, here and I've just written a piece reflecting on that experiment and where it might be headed, here.
All of which illustrates pretty well, I think, what you mean when you say, "When you inform me, you form me."
Thanks.
