A little bit about you and your project:
I'm creating free and open source software "social media classroom" including forum, chat, wiki, blog, social bookmarking, video sharing that educators can easily install; syllabi, teaching notes, videos for using this classroom to teach about social media; wiki repository of resources for educators regarding participatory media in education; finally, growing a community of practice around this toolset. I'm new to education, but ancient in online media.

Not much action here. Maybe the Social Media Classroom will turn out to be a more convivial environment for many to many interaction? Does anybody else have a report worth blogging? I'm eager to know what other DML winners are doing.
