Dear Friends,
I apologize for filling your emailbox, but as I mentioned at the TB gathering yesterday, there has been a lot of interesting stuff on the Inside Higher Education aggregator lately.  I found this student view of why students use Facebook during class to be especially interesting.

Perhaps there is something here worth discussing further?
