students

Hello everyone,

I am the co-founder of the Mediabird Study Notes software, which is an extension to existing LMS.

Mediabird is a collaborative online notepad that allows small study groups to collaboratively work on shared notes at any time. It is not only possible to extend notes or edit them at the same time but in particular Mediabird allows users to annotate notes and ask questions about them. With that respect, Mediabird combines the ideas of a wiki and of a forum but is not as public as a wiki and relates questions to the notes rather than separating them as done in a forum.

Does anyone know of an existing curriculum package that a teacher could use in high school, college, or youth group setting to train students in web design using Drupal? The students would have no previous web design experience.

If not, is anyone interested in contributing to a curriculum? Maybe using training modules you have already developed?

Thanks!

We've recently redesigned our website, so I took the time to do a small writeup and look back on our switch to Drupal a while ago. Hope you enjoy the read.

Making the transit from Textpattern to Drupal

Almer/Blank is an interactive media agency, specializing in high end Flex & Flash video application development looking for any students/interns who currently have working knowledge of Drupal and would like to learn how to integrate it with RIA’s.

We create amazing, award-winning work for clients including E! TV, Clear Channel, Apple, and Mattel. We work out of an awesome, bright, open warehouse, just off Abbot Kinney in Venice, complete with a 50-seat digital technology theater and a bar. When you work at Almer/Blank, you’ll get exposure to the highest-level of interactive application development practices, and have great extra learning opportunities, like our Intern Romps, user group meetings, and sitting in other special training sessions or courses at the Rich Media Institute.

Welcome to the group! I recently launched a new website for the Rice University Student Association (at 4 am this morning - fun) and I plan on launching a Drupal site to replace the aging website of my residential college, Jones College. The idea to create a place for Drupal campus web developers to exchange ideas popped into my head a few minutes ago - and here you are!

I'd love feedback on the SA website - especially criticisms!
