		<title>Stickie Wiki &#8211; Linoit for a post-it interface</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Collaborating with a faculty member on a paper focused on a project-based pedagogical approach for her business law course, the conversation quickly turned to the current semester. Her current section of the class was rather large, and the project-based approach that we were documenting seemed unwieldy.

		<title>Assessment in Blackboard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I developed these training materials for assessment in Blackboard 8. The training includes building tests and quizzes from question pools and in-depth exploration of the Grade Center. I was hoping to include details about Self-Assessment and Peer Assessment but those features aren't available in our installation.

		<title>Is sharing always cheating? When is it just sharing?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A faculty member forwarded me an article about del.icio.us as a mechanism for cheating among students. The argument at the center of the article is that tools of collaboration can be used for cheating. That really isn't all that shocking.
