"Weblogs (or blogs) usually contain diary style content, with updates posted on a regular basis and displayed in reverse\r\nchronological order controlled by a single author. The blogs can be publicly accessed by anyone or by invitation from the\r\nblog’s author. The content or use of a blog is the choice of the author and may include news, updates, articles, and\r\nreflections. The small but developing literature on web logging underscores its potential as an effective learning resource\r\nfor use in higher education. Some advantages of blog for learning include assisting students to become subject-matter\r\nexperts through a process of regular scouring, filtering and posting, increasing student interest and ownership in learning,\r\ngiving students legitimate chances to participate and acculturating them into a community of practice and providing\r\nopportunities for diverse perspectives. However, the use of the blog for formal lifelong learning is very much limited as the\r\nopen universities prefer to use their own learning management systems or other online platforms to deliver the teaching\r\nand learning activities. This paper contributes to these discussions through a case study of the author's experience with the\r\non-going development of an educational blogging resource for use in an undergraduate IT subject. Using the instructional\r\nstrategy of independent study and indirect instruction to support the learner-centered pedagogies, the author believe the\r\nelements of content, interactivity, collaboration and assessment are the pillars to make an education-based blog for adult\r\nlearners to support their self-managed learning. Detailing the theoretical aims, design, implementation and students’\r\nevaluation of the blog, the paper puts forward the argument for the educational use-value of blogging as a platform to\r\nsupport self-managed learning for adult learners in the formal lifelong learning environment.
