The Common Loon
This weblog about facilitating lifelong learning in a digital age is maintained by Shanta Rohse. I created it to support a graduate independent study course I am taking at Athabasca University's Centre for Distance Education in Winter 2005. You can find out more about me from my personal web site.

You want to revisit a source that you discovered previously.
***
Learning projects unfold unpredictably. Often you don’t recognize the value of a source until much later in the project.
As the project unfolds, the source may be buried several levels into a website, or is otherwise invisible and intangible.
You can’t re-locate the source.

Therefore, leave signposts along your research trail.
