Endlich ist es so weit. Mein Artikel “Einsatzpotenziale von (Micro-)Blogging in der Weiterbildung” steht komplett zum Download bereit. Eigentlich hätte der Artikel schon im Mai verfügbar sein sollen, aber leider gab es ein paar Verzögerungen. Auch an dieser Stelle sei noch einmal auf die Rezension des Artikels von Matthias Rohs hingewiesen.
Erschienen ist der Artikel in:
Roland Holten/Dieter Nittel (Hg.)
E-Learning in Hochschule und Weiterbildung. Einsatzchancen und Erfahrungen.
W. Bertelsmann Verlag, Bielefeld 2010
ISBN 978-3-7639-3342-6.
Wer die Literaturangaben für den Artikel direkt übernehmen möchte:

131 Personen haben sich bereit erklärt am Lehrbuch(projekt) “Lehren und Lernen mit Technologien” mitzuwirken. Gemeinsam mit Ilona Buchem (@mediendidaktik), Martina Jelinek und Sascha Kaiser (@saschakaiser) werde ich für das Kapitel (Micro-)Blogging folgende Themen bearbeiten:
- Weblogs im Bildungskontext
-
Mikroblogging im Bildungskontext
-
Anwendungsbeispiele
-
Didakische Einsatzmöglichkeiten
Ich freue mich sehr auf die Zusammenarbeit und bin schon sehr gespannt. Ich habe bisher mit keinem der drei zusammengearbeitet und wir sind quer durch den deutschsprachigen Raum verstreut. Vermutlich könnten wir parallel auch einen Beitrag zum Thema “Arbeiten mit Technologien” schreiben. Ein Face-to-Face treffen für die Erstellung des Kapitels ist bisher nicht vorgesehen!
Having a Webpage or a Blog for a Seminar becomes more and more popular. The times where you have to copy whole folders of seminal content are rarely over because of different good reasons.
Get it online
One can easily upload different kinds of files to the own webpage to make them available to the students. Usually Slides, Texts, Images, Videos or even a collection of Links are published on websites.
Share
The Web offers a lot of Options to share your Seminar stuff with others on social sharing services. This is helpful to avoid the reinvention of the wheel, to get credits and Feedback from others, even from people who are not within that particular seminar but interested in the topic.
Make it work
Most of those social sharing services do not only offer the storage of files. They usually offer user profiles, categories and tagging for your content. Another very useful feature is the embed function. That means you can upload and store your files on theyr server, but they allow you to copy an embed-code from their page to display the content in your blog/website. And further on to embed slideshows or films into your own website usually means that you can watch them without leaving your website.
How To
- Find the embed-code (Viddler, Teachertube, Slideshare, Flickr, Scribt, Issuu)
- Copy it to your Clipboard
- Go to your Blogpost (change to the code editor if you are in wysiwyg-mode)
- Paste the code
- Be happy
Note: WordPress.com and Edublogs.org sometimes need special code. See their FAQ’s if no special code is offered.
The Screenshots below will show you where to find the embed code.

It was my first Educational Conference I attended as usual visitor. The location St. Virgil in Salzburg was very useful. The Wifi was a little bit weak some times (as Martin already mentioned) and it seems that the eInfrastructure is more important than one thinks sometimes. A lot of the participants where hunting sockets, especially close to the rooms where the sessions took place. Even more important were the Tracks, Forums and Keynotes and I want to sum up my Impressions.

I am giving my first Seminar at the University of Hamburg this Semester. It is a lot of fun working with interested and motivated students and it is a lot of work to arrange a seminar for those students.
I decided not to use one of the established plattform which are supposed to support seminars here in Hamburg.
Reasons to work with a Blog and Wiki in Seminars
I decided that i’d like to try to work with a weblog-wiki-combination for my seminar as I am always praying telling in my workshops.

The eLearning Guild asked members for their favorite tips for using software for the creation of e-Learning. Members could submit tips in any or all of the following five categories:
- Courseware authoring and e-Learning development tools
- Rapid e-Learning tools
- Simulation tools
- Media tools
- Combining and deploying authoring tools
162 Tips and Tricks for Working with e-Learning Tools is a free PDF-Book. Go download it and discover a lot of nice ideas. In my opinion we need also a Tips for eLearning with social software Resource.
