Welcome to our blog! We hope you find something here that you are interested in.
This blog is a collection of research by students at Brigham Young University. We are studying together to determine the best ways to foster community in an online setting. What are the underlying principles or elements that help or hinder conversation and being together (in some sense) online?
This blog is a record of our progress in developing this new knowledge. It includes analysis of various websites and social media platforms, as well as suggestions as to what elements are essential to an online community. Ultimately we hope to build a model for a website that effectively fosters a sense community. This blog may be adapted in layout to better achieve those goals.
We welcome you to join with us; be a part of the conversation; submit ideas for us to consider; invite others to participate. Comments and criticisms are welcome. We just ask that you be polite. After all, we're developing a nice community. :)
