You might like to look at a chapter on networks and education I have in a
book by Ann Renniger & Wes Shumar. While its orientation is more to building
learning communities among students than among educators, it is an
explanatory piece about network approaches.
Haythornthwaite, C. (2002). Building social networks via computer networks:
Creating and sustaining distributed learning communities. In K.A. Renninger
& W. Shumar, Building Virtual Communities: Learning and Change in Cyberspace
(pp.159-190). Cambridge, UK: Cambridge University Press.
