Eureka! I Finally Get IT: Journaling as a Tool for Promoting Praxis in Research. Banks-Wallace, JoAnne. (2008). ABNF Journal, Winter, 19 (1), p24-27.
Abstract: Journals track the journey of the researcher elucidating how we learn and evolve over the process of conducting research. They allow us to weave together our private and professional lives which helps us better understand how the different contexts in which we live our lives come together to shape various aspects of the research process. This essay examines how journaling assisted me to more fully understand my work as a nurse scholar engaged in community-based health promotion research. Particular attention is given to exploring what it means to remain committed in long-term research studies and how team members' lives affect their ability to carry out interventions. Implications of findings for future design of intervention studies are also addressed.

If You Can't Beat 'Em, Blog 'Em. ABC NEWS, 2005. 22 min. View streaming video. Summary: The rise of the blog as a form of serious news reporting means that conventional journalists must become familiar with the blog format and rethink typical journalistic approaches. This ABC News program examines the blogger "community," reviews major news stories that were broken by bloggers, and demonstrates ways in which blogging differs from traditional reporting methods. Featuring an interview with a Virginia schoolteacher who created a groundswell of political action with her blog, the video shows how the immediacy and the personal style of blog-writing can have powerful results-so powerful that journalistic accountability is now a contentious blog issue.
