Coincidence?

• An intriguing "debate" between Stephen Downes and Gary Stager focuses on Web 2.0 and school reform.

• A smaller effort aimed at engaging 21st century learners takes place somewhere in Asia. You may wish to follow the quadratic equation session with gifted students at the Philippine High School for the Arts.

The experience was humbling yet edifying.

Not bad for the very first School-based Elgg-powered Social Networking Site in the Philippines. Perhaps even in the Asia-Pacific?

Shameless plug

!people now sports bookmarks and forum view (apart from the community blog view).

Network effects?

It's been two days since I've been at the fringes of the hustle and bustle of !people (an elgg implementation South of Manila). Now I can't keep up with the emerging "sea" of conversations (About 3,057 comments since March 4, 2007). Indeed, "The Internet is people".

Tale of 2 elgg cities

1. people@dls-c got a redesign. Check out the WOV. Discover.Link.Share.Create.
2. pinoys4education has more inhabitants. pop: 51 active users. (Philippine High School for the Arts teachers are in the house)
