Byline – Current research

ByLine is being redesigned for our next session of Journalism.net, which is in planning to take place during 2007. This redesign is guided in part by data collected during Science.net – the design study we conducted during the summers of 2005 and 2006. The redesign is also guided by an ethnographic study of a journalism capstone course in reporting which took place in the spring of 2006. For the 2007 Neighborhood.net game, we anticipate between 15 and 25 middle school players will play the game as part of their school curriculum for approximately 40 hours.
