Digication

This week’s Inside the Net with Leo Laporte and Megan Morrone featured Digication, a new online learning site. The main product is Digication Campus which the creator describes as:

… a web-based classroom for teachers and students. You can post assignments. Share ideas. Talk. Listen. Learn collaboratively. Get and give help. Post articles. Record grades. Collaborate online. And digitally archive the entire educational experience.

The site looks interesting. It’s much more basic than Moodle, which the creators acknowledge, but their “simple by design” motto has some merit for educators that don’t have a tech department that is willing or able to install Moodle. The site is free for the first 1,000 users at any one school.
