One of the trends I am personally excited about is that of students sharing what they have learnt digitally. This can come in the form a domain as the insightful article by @tvanderark points out, a blog, a portfolio or other web-based platforms. There are three underpinning concepts here: CHOICE, AUDIENCE and PROOF. Students have to make choices about what they are going to include in their learning diaries. They have to think of who is going to read their digital aritifacts and finally their assertions have to be backed up by examples - theoretical and/or practical - from the subject of study. I think I'll stop here so you can read the post below and while you're at it, see if I am practising what I preach about the THREE CONCEPTS in my own writing.
