Hopefully it will help clarify my thinking when it comes to writing the methodology section of my thesis proposal:

I’ve used Gliffy to outline the argument for my thesis proposal. It’s a bit rough and needs some work, but I’ll come back to it later! Click on the image below for a larger version:

After failing my previous Ed.D. thesis proposal (I can see why now…) I’m beginning the process of starting from first principles, this time building towards analysing the concept of ‘digital literacy’. The books I’ll be looking at today are both ones I’ve looked at (briefly) before and are both edited by Ilana Snyder:

- * Silicon Literacies: communication, innovation and education in the electronic age
I’ll be putting my notes, as usual, over at teaching.mrbelshaw.co.uk/wiki in the ‘thesis’ section.
