1) Michelle Everson’s Group Discussion in Online Statistics Courses
2) Michael Feldstein and I wrote up work we had done for a consulting project in Designing Usable, Self-Paced e-Learning Courses: A Practical Guide
3) Roger Schank’s The Story-Centered Curriculum
4) Laurie Rowell’s feature article Can the “$100 Laptop” Change the World?
5) Eric Sauve’s Communities of Practice: Addressing Workforce Trends Through New Learning Models
6) One of my opinion columns, My Life as a Wikipedian
7 and 8) My interviews of Elliott Masie and Rich Mayer
9) Jay Cross, Tony O’Driscoll,and Eilif Trondsen wrote Another Life: Virtual Worlds as Tools for Learning
10) Karl Kapp’s review of Jane Bozarth’s E-learning Solutions on a Shoestring

Just behind that, inexplicably, was Predictions for 2007, which was slightly more popular than Predictions for 2008. Of course, the new Predictions for 2009 wasn’t even out.
