 The School of Education team aka Blogging Guru team Dr Joy Jarvis, Sally Graham, Kathy Weston  BS Team: Karen Robins, Celeste Jones, Dr Nika Balomenou Research on Professionalism in Event Management

 “Reflective thinking level increased significantly over time […] peer feedback was found to negatively affect students' reflective thinking skills (Xie et al., 2008, p18)  Diaries- new form of e-diary (Bolger et al., 2003)  Research bias  Vote: reflective report or reflective blog?  Leaving comments!  Results: your printout

 Fortnightly entries  Peer comments  Assessed piece (700 words)  Focus group

 “..encourage ongoing, reflective practice via an exchange between students thereby limiting feelings of isolation …” (Wolf, 2010, p289)  Experience recording technique  Time management  Semester-long (or longer)  Voluntary engagement  Reduces research bias  Monitoring tool for tutors  Answers specific questions (numbers?)  Blended learning technique

 Difficult to locate  Making blog public  Universally accessible (in UH)  Honesty  Challenging feedback  Feedback for staff as an SFQ  Demanding in terms of organisation and time  ‘Bit of a fad’  Can detract from academic reflection  Voluntary engagement
