I found twiducate.com while looking for a safe social-networking solution for a colleague. It bills itself as a free medium for teachers and students to continue their learning outside the classroom in a more educationally focused, safe venue for teachers, schools, and home learners in a social networking environment. The sign-up was minimal and it was very easy to set up and get started. -- The URL: http://twiducate.com/ PS - there are still a dozen spots left for next Thursday's Ed-Tech PD Day at Jasper Place.
