Hey Evan, Good to see you again on Classroom 2.0. This is a good place to blog as well. Don't be shy about reposting from your Digitally Literate Educator Blog!
My name is Alyshia Olsen; I am a 20 year old college student from Olin College of Engineering. I am a part of a group of 6 Olin College students (we're in Needham, MA, and engineering students) who has taken a year off to work on an education related project. Since you are in the 'e-learning and online teaching' group, I thought you might be interested! Our project is called AlightLearning, and this is our "short" project description:
Under the assumption that within ten years, the landscape of modern education will have fully integrated what we now define as new classroom media: video, online collaboration, open source curriculum and other web tools, we hope to pioneer a web software tool that acts as a platform for this new media, bringing the power of the web and its tools to students, teachers and parents in a secure, comfortable and innovative environment. Our goal is to have our free software at a pilot middle school by April 15th, 2009, continuing to develop and coordinate with our users to create a product that other schools want to pilot and use at their schools, while allowing individual teachers to implement this tool in their own classroom.
Our project, titled Alight Learning, is currently trying to win a competition for startup funding on ideablob.com. You can find us at http://ideablob.com/3975 . We would love your support in the form of a vote within the next couple days, but more importantly we'd love your feedback and comments. Our description on Ideablob is short, and even the one above hardly gets at many of the issues we would like to take a stab at solving, but at least it's a start.
Feel free to email me back, check out alightlearning.com, anything you like!
Hi Evan, welcome!
Have a look at my group DigiSkills - about digital teaching methods - would like if you decide to join as well!
Take care.
Greetings

Hey Evan! Did you enjoy the long break after our class? 8)
I'm hoping the e-learning group will be a place for some 'slow convesation' about everything!
Hope you catch some trout and bass in the next few weeks. I'm looking to schedule a deep sea trip off the Coronado Islands with my son & son in law in the near future. Since I left the mountains, the sea has been good to me (fish wise that is.)
