The other issue is that students don't always like the invasion of their spaces (I am teaching in Second Life in fall) since it either ruins their enjoyment if they begin to engage critically or the 'legitimation' makes it less fun. I'll be watching your site as well, as this progresses--looks great. -VK Thanks for your comment, RL–yes, I think you are right that what we teach keeps percolating and isn’t fully realized until later.

I see great potential for such a pedagogy. One thing you probably already realize is the challenge of helping students make the shift from thinking about the social networking spaces you plan on using as 'their' space and outside of academic type use (even though, increasingly a lot of instructors are using these SNS spaces for class based activities). I too use social network systems - facebook, myspace and youtube pedagogically and try to work against the grain in the material I hand out for them to think about - it provides interesting moments - pedagogical opportunities in unexpected ways. I do feel, however, that students may not always understand these as significant learning experiences until they are fully done with the class. Good luck with your work!r ‘RL’ - Radhika Gajjala:Dear Virginia,I am glad you are making this effort. I see great potential for such a pedagogy.
