You can access a webinar here on using wikis/wikispaces for education. Whether you are just beginning your wiki or are looking for more advanced features or ideas, the webinar is designed for you.
The purpose of this wiki is to explore, explain and support non-traditional modes of publishing one's creations. In most cases, existing work and creations by others, using these same technologies, can also be used to support teaching and learning. These technologies fall under the broad definition of the "Read-Write-Web" or Web 2.0. There are hundreds of sites and services where you can create, modify and upload your own content, whatever it may be. (Designed for Connecticut College faculty and students.)

Whatever. In any case, The Golden Notebook Project, which went live at the start of this week, is an entirely engrossing cultural experiment.
We are inviting contributions to an edited book, to be published by a major international publisher, on the topic of language learning and teaching beyond the classroom. The aim of the book is to provide an account of the range of settings and types of learning and teaching beyond the classroom and to develop a broad theoretical understanding of this area of research and practice.
