Hi Valerie, This is a wonderful project ~ is it listed in the WikiEd List of Projects?
Increasingly, we're getting feedback from our community, about the importance in involving students in their actual learning process....whether it's hosting a class on the wiki, or integrating a component of actual development relating to course content. I am glad we are open to this, as it allows for innovative thinking and practice, and in this complex self-organizing ecosystem, who knows where it will take us. I am doing some work in the Community Media node ( www.wikieducator.org/Community_Media) and I wonder if there would be openness from say journalism / media schools for students to partner / intern with say, a Community Radio station across the miles, or do some other component of community service.. Your thoughts?
