Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present a project designed to build situated case-based knowledge in context of the supervision of student teaching by the facilitation of weblog. We believed that the features of weblog enable us to represent conceptual, strategic case knowledge, and socially shared identities and beliefs (Kim & Hannafin, 2008), built by university supervisors in the form of narratives (stories) in weblog space. Furthermore, this paper reports findings from initial implementation of technology infusion into the forum of supervision in teacher education in purpose of creating a community of practice (Wenger, 2008) to improve the performance as university supervisors.
