Drupal in Education

We are considering drupal for Smith college.

actively involved with created an extranet for an academic institution and several sites for professors, so finding out how others deal with drupal assisted accademic/educational/distance learning senarios would be very interesting

Looking forward to your presentation.

We’re building a site for ESL teachers to share knowledge and teaching materials online.

I work at the College of Education at the University of Illinois. We’re using Drupal for grants and project websites and web applications, but possibly looking toward using it within our intranet and as a CMS for our public website.

Am particulary interested in some tips on architectures for tasks in the education contexts you list in your initial post, particularly which modules are useful.

I’m coming in Sunday early afternoon if anyone wants to get together from the education field for informal networking.

I work for a large, K-12 school district in Colorado and just released a Drupal-based district site. Looking forward to see what other’s are up to, sharing some of my experience and hoping to learn how to make our site more useful to our community and our staff.

At Columbia University many departmental sites are in Drupal, but my group, CCNMTL, is using it mostly as a ‘social learning platform.’ I’d be most interested in how others are using Drupal educationally. Also, I’d be interested in people’s thoughts and experience using Drupal as an LMS (Learning Management System).

We’ve had some success in configuring Drupal to make it easy for educators to create a new site, and maybe start using rudimentary features as they enter course content. Then, we can add custom functionality later and incrementally.

I’d also like to talk about what we in the educational community would like in Drupal moving forward (e.g. better support for Dublin core, better Quiz modules, etc.)

Thanks for putting this together.

Washington State University Vancouver is considering Drupal for its campus website—it is currently in use by some on a department level. I am looking forward to hearing about how others are using it in education.

6 months ago we began our first semester of courses using an entirely drupal based solution. We went from 2 courses done in dreamweaver to 4 launched thanks to the workflow savings Drupal (and ELMS) afford us. We now have several modules, several themes, and a good bank of courses we are building. Each new course provides new challenges and new possibilities for new drupal functionality provided to benefit education. I’m looking forward to sharing some of the things we’ve been working on (which will be free soon) to both support and deploy courses using Drupal as well as hearing what other’s are doing. http://elearning.psu.edu/projects — if you’re interested in gettng some bg info.

At University of California, Merced we are planning to move all our departmental sites to drupal as well as some internal sites. I’ll definitely want to know if anyone has integrated their sites with CAS, LDAP, and/or shibboleth. It’ll also be awesome to hear how other people use it.

I work for Amherst College. We started migrating our web content over to Drupal about a year and a half ago. We currently build out course sites for every course in drupal, and have been moving our faculty over to it from Blackboard. We also maintain most of our static web content (academic and administrative department sites and so on) in Drupal, and by the end of this summer we’ll have pretty much everything converted. On the LMS front we’re building tools for drupal that are the most commonly used by our faculty in our current LMS - quiz engine, gradebook and media publishing being the first three we’re working on. I’m curious to hear from other schools about their uses of drupal, and we’re very curious about openID uptake at other institutions. We see it as a way to facilitate collaborator/ad hoc account creation, which is something we’re constantly struggling with.

We use Drupal in the astronomy department at Cornell University to manage and organize the department’s public outreach efforts. Plus, I’m involved in several other education-related projects that use Drupal too. Bill, you might remember that we chatted a couple months ago (on your blog and someone else’s) about using Drupal to build a site that encourages teachers to share lesson ideas with each other. So I’m looking forward to meeting you in person — thanks for organizing this session!

Is there a time scheduled for this yet?

See you then Bill
