I have been an active blogger since 2006, and I often say that becoming one was the
best decision I have ever made in my academic life.
In terms of intellectual fulfillment, creativity, networking, impact, productivity,
and overall benefit to my scholarly life, blogging wins hands down. I have written
books, produced online courses, led research efforts, and directed a number of university
projects. While these have all been fulfilling, blogging tops the list because of
its room for experimentation and potential to connect to timely intelligent debate.
That keeps blogging at the top of the heap. |
