Questions are Better than Answers

Here are what I query myself:

1. Why did I decide to work with my "gem students" group?
2. Why did I decide to do case study?
3. Why did I decide to study about wikis?
4. Why did I choose web 2.0?
5. ...

After a meeting...

I need to drop a few lines, as what my supervisor Cynthia suggested, about what I just said in the meeting about my study gem group.
1. They (the students) have similar traits. (i have to get to know about what the traits are.)
2. Getting to know about my students' trajectory (their past, schools, time in the states, undergrad time, present, future...)
3. What I should begin now? Creating a blog for them? Writing a framework? ...

Hope that this gem group is a hope for my study.

I begin to blog to study blogging

Hello folks,

Today is the productive day of mine. My officemates are so lovely in teaching lessons about money and ...blogging, two beautiful things in one's life.

At the end of the day I have to blog. Firstly it is because I am going to study about blogging and such things. Secondly i want to keep memories about this challenging journey, which I have just begun. Thirdly and finally I want to write.

Let's see what I can do during this long journey.
