WordPress + Education = ScholarPress
ScholarPress is a hub for developing WordPress plugins for Education. It’s that simple. So far we’ve developed Courseware, a course management tool to publish your class schedule, assignments, and bibliography to accompany your blog. There’s also WPBook, which can embed your WordPress blog into Facebook and create an application that students can add. Check it out.
Now, this is getting interesting.

2¢ Worth » The Containerless Learning Environment.
“I’ve written about this before, that we’ve conditioned ourselves to believe that you need containers to teach and learn. It happens within the fixed walls of the classroom, between the covers of our pre-packaged textbooks, and the inflexible confines of the daily schedule. We even measure learning, to a certain degree, by the amount of time students are contained in their seats.”

Over the course of this past semester I found blogging was very useful in my graduate course. So, I decided to revive “Sophisticated Hammers” and resume blogging about the strange world of educational and instructional technology.
