Should I write about 'blogs in education' for my dissertation?

As I'm pondering on the idea of writing my dissertation on 'blogging in education', I thought I might as well stop uhmming and arghing and set up my own individual blog. Hopefully, this will help me organise my ideas and encourage me to make a decision on what to write my dissertation on. The clock is ticking and getting louder and louder, therefore I must make a decision on what topic to write about.

With this blog, I also hope to improve my class edublog. I started my first blog- Shanel's Cafe in April for my module and use it for my classes as a group blog. I would say that the blog has so far enhanced my students' learning and made their learning experience more fun. However, as I'm still a beginner in the blogosphere, I am not sure I have been able to fully exploit it yet as a classroom aid. I am working on it though!
