Claude,
I am only interested in this if we can take over where Innovate left off. I don't have time to build it from scratch. I talking about readership and history.

I'm going abroad for a few days but will be back home on Wednesday: will see about TCFIR then.
Quickly: of course if you can host the site, there is no need to use WordPress. I only suggested it because the blog already existed.
As to open sourc...
I am not that familiar with Wordpress and its capabilities.
I am a editor for another journal and I was told about a journal software package that looked pretty good. I have the capacity to host massive database driven applicatios. Some of my col...
A post-coma rather than a post-mortem, I hope. The cause seems likely to be credit restrictions.
I agree with you on social networking not being adapted to an online journal: that's why I suggested reviving the blog. Blogs are far more suitable f...
I personal don't buy the notion of failure. On the surface Innovateonline looked like what should be a successful endeavor. It seems that notion is incorrect. I suspect that the demise is not related to the journal itself, but rather peripheral is...
Oops, only after I posted the reply above, I saw Denise's Lets Top 1000! note:
"We are now the torch bearers for the mission and energy of the recently closed journal Innovate. The work of Ideagora will continue and we encourage all members to in...

So sorry, Jim.

I don't know if this is true. I do know that Innovate is an important organ for communicating the impact of technology in education. IMHO, Jim has done an incredible job of making it a fine open-source for scholarly information. If it is true, it ...
Whether a person is allowed to take a year or more to complete a course is up to the institution offering the course. Please know that some institutions do allow students to extend course completion times, and may require a fee to do so.
I don't ...
Jim,
Is there any sound reason why a person shouldn't be allowed to take up to a year or more to complete a course, particularly if all the curriculum and content is given online.

Wisdom is not necessary. As Steve points out, the semester/trimester/quarter system is based on tradition.
Some schools are revolutionizing the college calendar. For example, Rio Salado College in Phoenix starts each of its online courses every t...
Steve, I used to think it was me and I would get angry and hurt, but I just realized that you are actually an equal opportunity condescending jerk.

The open-access journal Innovate, published by the Fischler School of Education and Human Services at Nova Southeastern University, is ceasing publication, Stephen Downes announced on his blog and a university spokesperson confirmed.

- Mark,
We have evaluated WizIQ and Have worked with Moodle but are by no means up to speed on that technology. Authorstream is entirely new to us.
I would really like to hear your opinions on the TQM questions.
Thanks for your response.

Mark Cruthers said… - Hi Reid,
With your interest in Education Technology, I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service. Here’s a public class recording conducted by Nellie Deutsch on Technology Integration.
