[edit] Overall Page Notes

We really need to get some hyperlinks into the various places that talk about each of these and encourage bloggers to write about what they're doing with educational networking. Vicki Davis 12:02, 26 January 2008 (UTC)coolcatteacher

[edit] The Term Educational Networking

I don't know that I invented the term, but maybe so. If someone sees my name listed so prominently at the top, I wonder if it will make them doubt the legitimacy of the page and perhaps turn it off. Maybe it is better at the bottom. I don't know. Just asking, since it is me, I'd prefer someone else to weigh in here. Vicki Davis 12:23, 26 January 2008 (UTC)coolcatteacher

[edit] Examples Used

We don't want a repeat of the incredible Social Networks in Education wiki, however, we want to have enough examples here to make this ANOTHER credible source of information on this topic. I think the focus here is the topic. Should we just pull examples with descriptions. Your thoughts? Vicki Davis 12:23, 26 January 2008 (UTC)coolcatteacher

Hmm, didn't know about that other wiki ... certainly worth thinking about how to make these complementary. It could be that most of the material should be over there, and this should be a summary-with-references ... JonPincus 16:10, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Accessibility

Jon suggested I bring this up: Any service used by a public school, or school that receives federal money, I believe, will need to pass, at a minimum, the Section 508 accessibility guidelines. I don't know if this should go under "Obstacles" or should warrant its own section, so I'm asking for suggestions. I'll start it under "Obstacles" in a few days if no one has a better idea.

I think that this should be its own section - Legal Information for Schools, or Educational Networking and Regulatory Requirements (by nation). Vicki Davis 17:33, 28 January 2008 (UTC)coolcatteacher
