Social Network - Learner Management SystemGreat post. Thanks for the links! Actually, you have captured exactly what it is we have been working on for the last several months. We have integrated social networking software (blog, chat, connections, RSS, media storage center for video/mp3's/ppts, calendar, gradebook, etc.) with the typical functionality of a LMS/CMS (test manager, course sites, gradebook, etc.). We plan to launch early January. We've been doing some pilot testing over the last semester and have come up with some interesting findings. You can see a mock-up here: www.5loaves.net/scholar360. If anyone is interested in more details, then I'd love to chat with you: glen.moriarty@gmail.com.
