Danielle has certainly expressed the irony of this post. Though, the waves of change are coming and in the new version of Drupal, co-authors will be much easier to present. The technology will catch up with our needs (and then we will need more from it) ...
Thank you for this resource! In my experiences teaching, it seems that it is difficult for neophyte teachers to share resources because they are worried that the community judge them to be inferior. That is actually how I felt when I first started teachin ...
Undercurrent in all three errors is that new communities take time. I think in some ways this feels counterintuitive when starting a digital community because there is still this feeling that everything on the internet should be a phenomenon. Of course, a ...

Building on Karen, Matt's and Karen's discussion, one of my favorite elements in many of IMR's comment conversations is the fact that the writers do enter a discourse about the topic. I have seen several review and change their own claims. ...
I obviously see some connections between your post and Megan's. I think a certain amount of silliness is necessary in any community. To the point that you make above about feeling closer to your cohort than you did in other programs, do you feel as t ...
Great post! My favorite thing about this situation is that the two communities that you cross reinforce the importance of each other. Your work in writing academically about the community solidifies the community it in print. The Facebook community reinfo ...
