Consider what would happen if these course management systems could syndicate synopses of all course offerings or just the assignments I might be enrolled in. The same RSS aggregator I might use to stay in tune with news could also feed me a summary of my pending projects or assignments.” mcli forum, fall 2003 http://www.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/forum/fall03/rss.html

They Stole OUr Learning Environment - Now We're Stealing It Back http://ouseful.open.ac.uk/blogarchive/007429.html “Moodle VLE is generally locked down, the wiki scrapes every ﬂavour of embed, script and embed are not allowed in resource pages... but - if all you put in an HTML resource page is a single iframe, it seems to get through... So I can actually embed whatever I want in an inframe container within the VLE...” The Amazing Tony Hirst, Open University, http://ouseful.info

This project wasn’t the result of the effort of a team of a dozen people over 6 months. It was me, a couple weeks, and a lot of lost sleep. To do this, I committed to the idea that it would be a pet project... Part of me feels that you have to be willing to take those risks though when you’re in web development. Playing it safe means you’ll only ever be average.” Michael Fienen, Pittsburg State University

http://pairadimes.davidtruss.com/beg-for-foregiveness/ “I had students in Grade 10 Personal Planning do some of their work on a private ning network. For mid term & ﬁnal report cards students did a self evaluation with a self prescribed mark that we discussed one-on-one while looking at their work and comparing what they did with what I thought was exemplary work... Didn't ask permission from the school or parents to add these students to Ning... that's why I just kept it private.” David Truss

http://yammer.com/ “I used Yammer and created an account for our district. Didn't ask or think to. I slowly began inviting people who I thought might ﬁnd it useful. After I had about 10 folks using it, I told everyone to start inviting others. We now have about 70 people using it (total teaching staff of about 500), that includes board members and superintendents. ” Dean Shareski, Prairie South School Division

Looking for Whitman http://lookingforwhitman.org/ “Utilizing open-source tools to connect classrooms in multiple institutions, the project has created a collaborative online space in which students will be able to research Whitman’s connections to their individual locations and share that research with one another in a dynamic, social, web-based learning environment.”
