Blogging research

I found a 2003 research article by Anne Bartlett-Bragg in an on-line peer reviewed journal.

Here is the abstract:

There are claims of over 500,ooo blogs published on the Internet. What is a blog and how could it be integrated into pedagogical practices to enhance learning? This paper will introduce the blogging phenomenon and present some options for educators. Some theoretical principles and guidelines for practice will be presented, along with some further resources for exploring the blog-o-sphere and creating a blog for either personal publishing or to be integrated into pedagogical strategies.

Check it out.
