As I continue with the writing process, I am continually revisiting my writing plan and making adjustments. I have finalized the resubmission of the Annotated Bibliography and will post it to the journal writing page and send it via email to Dr. Pittman and Dr. Gould. It was helpful to revisit this document and the sources included in it. By doing so, I feel I have a much better perspective on the fourteen additional sources that will be added to the literature review. In addition to working on the AB, I also began the Spencer grant and will be continuing to work on that throughout this week. I did come across an interesting video related to a previous class discussion on identifying scholarly writing and I have posted it below as a reference.

Peer Review Process
Prior to submission of the first draft of the Annotated Bibliography, we were required to have a peer review the document utilizing the rubric below. We were also required to conduct a review of another cohort member's Annotated Bibliography. This process was very productive in encouraging conversations between writers regarding formatting and technical aspects of the document. It was good to get constructive criticism but also gain some affirmation regarding what we are doing.

I have also included the emails exchanged between colleagues regarding the review process:

Ed,
Attached are my comments regarding your AB. Some of them include the expansion of any acronyms. I realize that some of us know what they mean, but it's good to explain them. You did that for most, but some of them need to be expanded upon.
Overall, very well done. APA looks to be great and followed well. I used your template for the rubric grading below.
Thanks for the opportunity to share and learn from each other.
Dave.
APA Formatting: Proficient (14 points) – I wasn't sure if you needed to add the instructor's names and date to the header page. I thought I would mention it regardless.
Critical Summary: Distinguished (15 points) – All required elements were present.
Critical Assessment: Distinguished (15 points) – The presentation was done is such a way that all readers could understand the study presented. I learned that I did not take the reader into consideration as well as you did.
Critical Reflection: Distinguished (15 points) – The flow was done very well with thoughts presented with each one, while weaving the common theme into all reviews.
Technical: Proficient (13 points) – The use of 'we…' was used in the Intro (may be acceptable, but I thought the sentence could be re-worded). Acronyms can be expanded in some instances.

Ed,
I think your paper looks good. The one thing I would point out is that under each of your references where you give your summary of the article, you have the summary hanging or indented. When Pittman talked about this in the Wimba, Lausch and I were both under the impression that you should not do this. I am not sure if we took the correct meaning on this but it might be something to check out.

Ed,
Thank you for the comments about the hyperlinks, I was not aware of that and did not pick up on it in the APA. I was talking to Fusco and he shared with me about not bolding the headings. But, here is what confused me on that:
Headings
APA Style uses a unique headings system to separate and classify paper sections. There are 5 heading levels in APA. The 6th edition of the APA manual revises and simplifies previous heading guidelines. Regardless of the number of levels, always use the headings in order, beginning with level 1. The format of each level is illustrated below:
APA Headings | |
Level | Format |
1 | Centered, Boldface, Uppercase and Lowercase Headings |
2 | Left-aligned, Boldface, Uppercase and Lowercase Heading |
3 | Indented, boldface, lowercase heading with a period. |
4 | Indented, boldface, italicized, lowercase heading with a period. |
5 | Indented, italicized, lowercase heading with a period. |
Thus, if the article has four sections, some of which have subsection and some of which don’t, use headings depending on the level of subordination. Section headings receive level one format. Subsections receive level two format. Subsections of subsections receive level three format. For example:
Methods (Level 1)
Site of Study (Level 2)
Participant Population (Level 2)
Teachers. (Level 3)
Students. (Level 3)
Results (Level 1)
Spatial Ability (Level 2)
Test one. (level 3)
Teachers with experience. (Level 4)
Teachers in training. (Level 4)
Test two. (Level 3)
Kinesthetic Ability (Level 2)
In APA Style, the Introduction section never gets a heading and headings are not indicated by letters or numbers. Levels of headings will depend upon the length and organization of your paper. Regardless, always begin with level one headings and proceed to level two, etc.
As you see it says to bold the headings. I had this argument with Lausch and I decided to leave them in and if I get corrected on it I will take them out. But, I am really not sure about it.

Doug,
My apologies for not getting this to you earlier in the day. I have attached you AB with comments embedded into the document. I have also recreated the rubric provided to us by Dr. Pittman below:
APA Formatting: Proficient (13 points) – Score earned was a result of the bold headings, spacing between citations, and use of hyperlinks.
Critical Summary: Distinguished (15 points) – All required elements of the summary were provided and writing was both clear and concise.
Critical Assessment: Distinguished (15 points) – Presentation of ideas was done in a clear and understandable manner.
Critical Reflection: Distinguished (15 points) – A refection was provided on each source and an overall introduction was articulated in an effective manner.
Technical: Proficient (13 points) – Citations were not completely accurate given the use of hyperlinks.
Overall, your AB is well written and will certainly serve to broaden the foundation of literature you have already procured on your topic. Well done!

Video Reflections
In viewing the video (http://youtu.be/LIEeTsHBj98) regarding scholarly writing, specifically dissertations, I found the advice being offered very practical and sound. It really provided the framework to set you up for a positive writing experience. As with each of us, I'm sure some of the suggestions are more applicable than others. For me, I need an extensive block of time in which to engage in the writing process but once I get started, it is analogous to an athlete being in "the zone" or as the author put it "religious ecstasy".
The author did highlight some of the challenges many of us face. A particular one that came up was the importance of eliminating distractions (phone, work, family, social networking, etc.). Distractions take various forms and some of them are responsibilities rather than distractions.
One aspect that really resonated with me was the importance of collegiality in the writing process through peer review and in working with others in these endeavors. Whether it is sharing ideas about each other’s work or actually engaging in critical analysis of it, the collaboration carries a great deal of meaning. Having authored and co-authored articles in the past, I can speak to the fact that it is more enjoyable when the process is shared.

Searching for Sources
As I continue to hunt for additional sources, I have discovered a wide range of articles and dissertations related to technology, social capital, and community. My initial effort at Chapters 1, 2 and 3 yielded approximately 85 references (as outlined on the reference pages of that document). I have looked at and reviewed an additional 13 resources and probably could look at a great deal more (especially in the area of social capital). I really want to focus on contemporary viewpoints of social capital as I have outlined in my original literature review. The search overall has yielded some interesting information.
In doing this part of the writing process, I came across a very interesting article from Teachers College Record, Columbia University - Analyzing Teachers' Professional Interactions in a School as Social Capital: A Social Network Approach. This article will be helpful as a reference in looking at how secondary school worker perceptions of technology impact the development of social capital in that context. Since the article focuses on professional interactions, this can be tied into technological venues for such interactions. TCR also provides a two-minute video to accompany the article and I have provided it here as a reference:
