Our school got rid of individual faculty webpages and opted for Moodle as a more consistent cohesive LMS. It works great for those purposes. I am looking for the next innovation in Education Tool. It is kind of like Netvibes... I want students to take charge of their education managment. Follow each others blogs, save resources, post to classes, receive feedback from teachers, all in one centralized place. Great article, inspiration for innovation.

Your post got me to further mess with my own account and put together a tech page teachers could come to to get a taste of the power of feeds. That got me thinking - what feeds are you reading that you make public? I wish there was a way to mirror a tab from a private page to the public page. It would avoid having to load the public page to keep it current. Thanks Really like this use of netvibes to make collection of student blogs easier for teachers.

Do a rare (ugh) run through my reader tonight and caught up on your posts. Love Netvibes, and PageFlakes, and considered them this summer for our 6th grade 1:1 laptop program. However, the Terms of Service for aggregators like these are pretty limiting for students, especially those under the age of 13. Symballoo is an pretty interesting visual aggregator but I don't like it as well as I do these. So, I ended up having teachers use their Google Readers and students will use those as well once introduced to them. (Using a wiki with posted links to all 150 blogs right now.) We set up our own Google Apps for Edu platform which allows us to get around the 13 year old COPPA issue. Glad you have the options you do over there...for now, from stateside, doing the best we can.
