Profile Wiki

To be honest, when I first discovered I had to reflect on how "creating a profile" could be of any relevance to teaching and learning; I was at a loss as to where to even begin.
However as I pondered the greater context of the activity I began to realise that all classrooms start with an introduction.
Perhaps in this instance the classroom is slightly different to the conventional classroom, but in order to develop an environment through which students can interact with each other to share ideas and ask questions it seems that this activity is more valuable to my understanding of learning and teaching than I first thought.

The next question I subsequently posed was after bringing us all together and encouraging a professional voyeurism amongst peers of sorts, why would our teacher encourage us to then post up our blog addresses with all our assessable items for the rest of our class to see? This would have caused mass chaos in my undergraduate degree!

But then as I stumbled across the theory of social cognition, it became clear that these tasks were far from without purpose.
