Abstract

This study builds upon initial findings (Aylward, 2004) regarding 127 pre-service teacher education students use of weblogs or blogs within the coursework of Inclusive education. Six modes of blogging are reviewed in addition to the presentation of a "continuum of engagement" that describes the ways in which students took up course content as assessed by their interactions within the blogging environment ( a.k.a. The Blogosphere). The findings indicate that blogs hold great potential for tracking the evolution of students' meaning making over time.
