http://bloggignenglish1.blogspot.com/2009/04/academic-vs-creative-style.html
Giovedì 16 aprile 2009. Academic vs creative style? Since I am preparing my exam for English Medieval Literature, the research article I have come across is about a Norwegian project titled MEG, Middle English Grammar. The purpose of the project is to transcribe 1000 original medieval texts and then transform them into digital texts.

I think Personal Learning Environment is basically composed of the different learning categories:. Each of them is based on the so called (by me) 'the 3 W': What, Where and When. Description of the used tools and services (Internet, newspapers, media, etc.). Moreover, I found 3 sub-categories of What:. Have a nice day!

Lost in translation
http://bloggignenglish1.blogspot.com/2009/04/last-wednesdays-lesson-i-discovered-new.html
Sabato 4 aprile 2009. Last Wednesday’s lesson I discovered new tools to explore the Web. It was an interesting experience and it will be a valid support for collecting information for my thesis.

However, even though the Web is undoubtedly one of the widest existing sources of information, how can one be sure of authenticity and validity of its content? Identity of the author. Reliability of the content. One of the ...

Lost in translation: Sharing documents
http://bloggignenglish1.blogspot.com/2009/04/sharing-documents.html
Giovedì 30 aprile 2009. This week I’ve learnt how to use. A program in which you can share documents with your friends and colleagues. It is very useful because you can edit a work and see also editing from other persons who want you to see and collaborate to it. In my opinion, Google Docs would be a useful instrument for thesis or researches, if only there were professors willing to use it! 2 maggio 2009 08:57.

http://theshakespearians.blogspot.com/2009/04/be-careful-with-sources.html
The Shakespearians and Co. Sunday, 5 April 2009. Be careful with SOURCES! Photo taken from flickr.com. And how wrong am I! I think about a topic or some specific words (i.e. tags) and then I connect on Internet, write down. Http:/ www.google.it/. And finally look for the tags I've chosen. Moreover, I choose one or more among the results and then I start reading. It's not completely wrong, but it's not the right way to do a good Internet search! What style do you need? What kind of author? Chiara Deon's b...
