I am looking for a list of school based sites that use organic groups. Can anybody point in towards a few?
Best,

Island at Brigham Young University
We've built one here at BYU at http://island.byu.edu
I can give you an account if you'd like to poke around and see how things are set up from the students perspective.
A professor and I are writing a paper on Island that'll be done in a few weeks. I'll post a copy on my blog and link to it from here when it's done.

Paper on Learning2.0 / Organic Groups
A professor and I have finished up writing the paper I mentioned earlier on this thread about our experience in using Drupal/Organic Groups to create a learning2.0 platform to facilitate the creation of communities of learners.
If anyone here would like a copy, shoot me an email.
Thanks,
Kyle Mathews

hey
Hi Kyle
I would love to have a copy of that paper :)
please mail me pec.sumit@gmail.com
We are planning building our university site over Drupal
sumit kataria
www.sumitk.net

Starting point
The resources page is a starting point (although not all of these sites use OG): http://groups.drupal.org/node/1722/resources -- many of the sites here link to specific case studies -- Also, http://sp.glenview34.org/ uses OG
We recently developed writingmatters.org and teacherleaders.org -- both of these sites use OG extensively to support teaching and learning. If you are interested, feel free to get in touch -- we have copies on our dev servers, and I can show you through the backend. I'm also midway through writing up a case study on the teacherleaders.org site, as there is a pretty rich social infrastructure for site members in that site.
Depending on your goals for the site, often OG and taxonomy can be used for overlapping ends -- ie, groups can be used for site organization, as well as access control. It largely depends on your privacy needs, and your publishing workflow needs.

Can I have a look too?
I am building a website (http://www.cafedelaslenguas.com) with organic groups too. This website aims to support open language learning with a blended learning approach. Students should be able to join language groups and / or attend a language class under the guidance of a language teacher. I build the theme myself. People can create an account and have a look for themselves. I have to say that it hasn't finished yet, and that I want to upgrade the website before the end of this year. I would like to create another view-type, so that I can embed an video from http://www.screentoaster.com, that students can watch while they are making the assignment (e.g. quiz). Furthermore I want to use the timeline-module to visualize the progress of the students. I think this is a great tool and I am very happy that there is a good update for 6.14.
However I would be very happy to read other comments too. So, please feel free to leave a comment!
All the best,
Dirk
