I am an educator now making Web. 2.0 solutions for the classroom. We use ruby on rails and work on open platforms, right now focusing on facebook. Feel free to try out our product: http://apps.facebook.com/courses
Hi Michael - I really like what you do. My site at SEEdebate.org is also free and is an environment controlled by teachers. We focus on current events. Would you take a look when you get a chance and let me know what you think? Feel free to create an educator account so that you can see the student comments...

Have added the app and have sent it to others at the Uni. I noticed that Psychology are using it at the moment (at least someone is, may not be a directive of the School)
I was a classroom teacher--language arts/social studies at the middle school level for 10 years... Recently moved to another state, so now things are up in the air while I decide if I want to go back to the classroom or not. I have a little more time currently, so I get to spend time doing stuff like this--I'm shocked at what I've been missing! I thought I was ahead of the curve--not even close! I'm dabbling with things like animoto, blogging, pageflakes--to keep occupied, but I think ultimately the kids will call me back to school... :)
