Abstract

Following constructionism and the learning by doing approach of Papert in our university web design course students are given the task of building a personal blogs. Students thus practice selected Web technologies. The task is supported by a dedicated web-based integrated development environment. Their blogs are interconnected and communication is available. Students are also encouraged to publish relevant articles on their blogs. We have observed competitiveness boosting, experience exchange, and overall increase of involvement with the course. Our experience suggests improved quality of learning to the benefit of our students.
