The quest elements that go with the missions can serve as a means to help students to define their own goals in life; it might ask them to tell about their individuality, creativity and passions; it serves as a means to canalize ill-will caused by schooling schemes that demand conformity;<br />

Chris, that sounds like a good idea. Actually, there are a few different options and one is to ask for volunteer moderators as and when needed, but otherwise try and do without. It works on some sites, and keeping away from a platform like Ning would help. It's too attractive. I might try and go that route for the site I'm building now.

<br />
The 'for schools' site would need to be much more tightly moderated, but I'm looking at ways to get corporate sponsors for that. My marketing guy things it's very do-able. And then the downloadable site would be moderated by the people operating it.<br />

Content moderation always seems a difficult thing but maybe the method at <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.43things.com" target="_blank">www.43things.com</a> could help ?<br/>
this is where members of the community can flag an item and then vote for something to be removed, if something gets 3 votes it gets removed. This would help out whoever has to do the actual moderation.<br/>
useful to get rid of spam bots and suchlike.</div>

Wow this is good and how exciting about Ushahidi! I love some of the new features such as groups and the extra tabs. I too am finishing up and have much on the go but thought I'd drop in to say keep it up it's looooookin good :)

Hi ninmah, nice to hear from you.<br />
<br />
I'm thinking to add the mission descriptions with the learn, act, imagine in the same way as Evoke does now. And then add an additional page for teachers containing lesson plans, resources, etc. On the downloadable version of the site, the teachers could then make that page invisible to students.<br />
<br />
How does that sound? Or do you think it needs to have more than one page per mission for the teachers? Either way is fine by me.<br />

<br />
I would also keep a site for teachers where they could post additional information and ideas as time goes on.<br />
<br />
Also, do you think there should be more than one level of difficulty? I'm inclined to think it's a good idea. Assume everyone is working in their own language, plus maybe an EFL version too?<br />
<br />
And how would you use your own Ushahidi maps as part of a lesson? I'm very excited about that development. Hi Chris -- I would love to h…tag:www.urgentevoke.com,2010-05-07:4871302:Comment:1417552010-05-07T14:52:55.782Zninmahhttp://www.urgentevoke.com/profile/ninmah
Hi Chris -- I would love to help with the curriculum. I have part of one drafted, and I'm still looking for collaborators if anyone is interested. You can see it on the original Evoke wiki (<a href="http://urgentevoke.wikia.com/wiki/EVOKing_in_the_Classroom" target="_blank">http://urgentevoke.wikia.com/wiki/EVOKing_in_the_Classroom</a>). It's a work in progress :-)<br />
