[school-discuss] LessonForge

[Matt Jezorek <matt@bluelinux.org>]

This is the basics of LessonForge's plans


Create a online database of lesson plans that includes: 
        a) A import feature that will allow someone to digitally send 
           a copy of a lesson plan from a Word Processor or PDF or some 
           other digital format. 
        b) A export feature to export lesson plans to pdf for printing 
        c) Use a XML Format (EduML, EML) for all lesson plans to allow 
	   easy transformation of the data to any other format. 
        d) Create a DB index of all the xml files with other information 
           that would be searchable. For example "I need a lesson plan for 
           X Book Y Chapter/Y Page's" 
        e) A chat back feature for each lesson plan. 
        f) a Desktop Client (linux, windows, possibly mac) that would 
           interface to the Database and pull back lesson plans from 
           searches 
        g) A directory index to allow drill down topics/subjects to see 
           other lesson plans 
        h) a way to collaborate/merge lesson plans into one lesson plan 

Any comments ?
