Wow, thanks for stopping by from the other side of the world! Very cool. I saw the byteclub site and its a perfect blend of mediawiki and WordPress -its really exciting to think that many of us are thinking through the integration of these tools simultaneosuly and will be able to share our own discoveries throguh the very tools we are recombining for teaching and learning. I will be following your development closely now that I know where your blog is:) How are you installing the blogs – are you doing individual installations or working with a multi-user solution. If you are interested in Multi-User WordPress blogs check out Lyceum. My next piece of the this puzzle will be on Lyceum, but it may be a little while yet, for I used wordpress.com blogs for the students this term given my own time constraints. I am kinda kicking myself a little, not because WordPress.com isn’t excellent -for it is -but because I really wanted to work through the bugs of a Multi-user installation locally. Soon enough, I hope.

For some really cool uses of the wiki in an academic setting check out wikifish maintained by Auburn University’s School of Achitecture.

Be seeing you!

Some time ago we installed MediaWiki and Wordpress on a community site for IT students at Swinburne University. It’s not quite the same as what you’re doing, but you’ve given me some ideas (and, presumably, my fellow admin since he sent me the link to this page).

Check out http://www.byteclub.net if you’re interested. We have been particularly interested in the use of MediaWiki in an educational setting for managing course related content (and yes, we do have Blackboard available to us, but prefer to use a wiki).
