I'm finding the discussions about research on the Flat Classroom project to be very interesting. We have some researchers who are joining in the project just as observers and if you fit in this category, just join the project and join this group.

Craig Union is sort of the de facto leader of this group and DJ White is also really contributing as well. Join in!
