Knowledge, Learning, Community

This is a bit of an inside look at some of the work that led to Domain of One's Own at the University of Mary Washington. With 11,000 blogs the university had a major support project on its hands, and then later (as most moved over to DoOO) a major archiving challenge. "The platform was a launch pad for Domain of One's Own and put UMW on the map for innovative digital learning. At the time, there was no precedent, no best practices, no road map, no rules. Now, we hope the lessons shared in this essay help schools trying to maintain their own legacy, open, digital learning platforms." Realted: Terry Greene interviews Jim Groom on Getting Air.
