    I wrote this post to outline the progression I take my classes through to get them to the state where they may collaborate directly with students in another country. I put a lot of time and thought into the progression of collaborative skills.

    This talks about from an educational standpoint how I take students towards a flat classroom project.

    This incredible chart says it all about the importance of wiki collaboration. This should also be a message to bloated bureaucracies looking to squeeze that last bit of efficiency out of already overworked staff. This is an important chart for horizon project students to include, I believe.

    this is a very important graphic for including in the Horizon Project material.

  • Comment intensity As Avinash Kaushik points out, there are many different metrics to measure your blog’s success. Some common metrics include subscribers, page ‘hits,’ and Technorati rank or authority. Another useful metric might be the average number of comments per blog post, or comment intensity. The table below shows the comment intensity for five blogs: this one, dy/dan, Weblogg-ed, Cool Cat Teacher, and Ewan McIntosh’s edu.blogs.com.

    Scott McLeod talks about how to rank one's success as a weblog -- talking about comment intensity. I think comments are important, however, comments are often correlated with controversy and the vocality of readership.
