I use Diigo because Exploring network functionality of Diigo.
Looking for somewhere to share resources related to online learning (and on-site for that matter - not just the internet) ... share resources that will help develop policies/guidelines that allow open, flexible, consistent learning networks - safe yet authentic for students, risk reduction for teachers. I should start a group, heh? :)

- The handbook is intended to be of use to grassroots practitioners involved in designing new projects and adapting existing ones; to developers designing digital tools and resources; and to funding bodies wanting to ensure robust processes in their supported projects.
- This handbook is not a ‘how-to’ manual or recipe book that provides one formula to follow in all situations. Every project is different, with different aims and different contexts. Also, every design process will be different, depending on the particular aims, the people involved and the resources available. However, there are some common issues and questions that every design process will need to consider.

- Odds are pretty good that if you're talking about changes to teaching and learning that the new Read/Write Web is bringing about, many of the words you are using start with "C." There's a whole new world out there with a whole new set of skills our kids need to manage. I guess you could call it a "C change."
