Sticky Notes for class notes!
http://drupal.org/project/sticky_notes
Just found this and have been playing around with it. Still very early on in my assessment of it and it just came out the other day but looks VERY promising for all levels of education. Check out the demo and I'm sure you'll be able to see the possibilities. Basically it lets you create a sticky note or view your own sticky notes. It also has a lot of permission settings so that people can set things to public or private stickies as well as who can view / post notes.

Overview:
In the last pune drupal user meetup ( 26th dec, 09) we all agreed to the need of more drupal awareness as a whole and one of the ways we discussed was to tap the interest early at the student level. To this effect project code named drupalkar (having both hindi and marathi connotations) was planned in which seasoned drupal developers will donate 1 hr to a student gathering in a college to spread drupal joy/way of web development. Approach here is simple, in that 1 hr drupal developer would demo how a website can be made from scratch in 1 hour in form a interactive demo and giving out more ideas and possibilities at the end of the demo. The same would be followed in many colleges with different developers donating time with different demo's (or maybe same, if one works out to be exceptionally good to catch attention)

Drupal Training for Educators
Hello, all,
On January 31 and February 1, I'll be running a two day training on using Drupal in the classroom. The training will be held in Philadelphia, at Science Leadership Academy.
So, if you're around Philadelphia and want to dig into using Drupal, come on down! These sessions are geared toward end users, as opposed to developers or site admins. The emphasis will be on training educators how to use Drupal in an online class or a blended learning environment.

Read moreA personal/community workspace, or another look at social networking
I've been thinking about some of the specifics of creating a personal workspace within Drupal -- although my main area of interest is education, these thoughts have applications outside education -- these are some rough notes, and I'm curious to see/hear reactions about what I'm missing/overlooking. These notes are not intended to be comprehensive, but a starting point in a conversation about some specific functionality
Some basic functionality--

To accomplish this, I was thinking about some integration between BuddyList (http://drupal.org/project/buddylist) and the ACL (http://drupal.org/project/acl) or NodeAccess (http://drupal.org/project/nodeaccess)module -- members of a user’s Buddylist can be used to form an access control list on a node by node basis-- I’m leaning toward the ACL module as I think a generalized API that can be used by other modules provides some advantages long term. However, was the ACL module designed to work primarily with roles, or with individual users?
Read moreSome Options wrt functionality
On the basis of some of the comments in this thread, here are some thoughts about a first iteration:
All development here assumes development in 5.0 -- this means that some of the modules will need to be updated to 5.0 if they are not already there.
There are three types of functionality to consider for the initial distribution:
- The public facing school web site
- Classes; ie, the classes of an entire school in a single install
- Student and teacher work areas -- this can be considered a PLE, but it will allow the learner-controlled space to exist alongside the more structured course area.
