Personal Webpublishing as a Reflective Conversational Tool for Self-Organized Learning by Sebastian Fiedler

Whew, that's a long title that pretty much sums up this 18-page article. It was an enjoyable read, though a bit long. It took me several times to sit down and read it because I am not a good speed reader...maybe I should take a speed-reading class.
To begin with, Fiedler emphasized a change in traditional task-focused learning and introduced the idea of process-learning that is self-organized, autonomous, and tailored to carry out a goal that will meet the needs of the learner.
He is concerned that the art of learning is not taught in traditional training and education and that skills, habits, and attitudes need to be developed so that they "work well beyond traditional contexts". I thought he was going pretty far when he defined learning as "a continuous construction and reconstruction of reality" but it probably boils down to a matter of semantics as to how each person defines reality or if you prefer to one general definition of reality...
I love the potential for Personal Webpublishing to elevate the process of education to a level of awareness of PROCESS (p. 7). Logging ideas in a sometimes impressionistic manner is natural and acceptable in this new writing genre and as the previous article mentioned, its roots seem to lie in constructivism.
As a teacher, I like the dynamism of RSS - especially useful is its ability to encode content so that I can extract conversations that are very focused on a particular theme or topic! I also like the way that Persoanl Webpublishing breaks down boundaries so that we all become a learning resource for each other.
