High School Animation Question.. Individual disciplines within Classroom 2.0?

Hello,
I've been teaching animation for a few years and digital arts for almost 10. Since I've been a user of ning for a few months now I was wondering if anyone had advice or examples of getting ning websites set up using what we've learned from classrooms 2.0.

My site is at highschoolanimation.ning.com and the focus, crazily enough, is animation.

A site like Classroom 2.0 that has so many members and been successful is just great.

I feel like with everyone collaborating and sharing that we can all get to the finish line that much quicker.

Have a great day
Josh Sheridan
