I just found this blog site (via llane's delicious list) which is used to support students on a Philo 'course' (ie US for module). A quick scan and it certainly seems an interesting idea, though it probably requires quite a lot of tech tweaking in the background (so is it for me?). There's some background info at: http://www.andrewcullison.com/2009/09/wordpress-as-a-replacement-course-management-system/comment-page-1/ I'd like to explore this a bit - as part of my action research - as a possible platform for my SMUO module. This seems to suggest that there will be quite a few cycles in the research: this initial tool review has to be part of it (even if it's just be involved). Reflexivity, reflexivity...
