Academic Commons

Academic Commons is a new online forum around technology in liberal arts education. It is sponsored by the Center of Inquiry in the Liberal Arts at Wabash College, which makes it sound like a local initiative that is being scaled up into a pseudo-journal.

Here is a quote from their opening page:

forum for investigating and defining the role that technology can play in liberal arts education. Sponsored by the Center of Inquiry in the Liberal Arts at Wabash College (http://liberalarts.wabash.edu), Academic Commons publishes essays, reviews, interviews, showcases of innovative uses of technology, and vignettes that critically examine technology uses in the classroom. Academic Commons aims to share knowledge, develop collaborations, and evaluate and disseminate digital tools and innovative practices for teaching and learning with technology. We want this site to advance opportunities for collaborative design, open development, and rigorous peer critique of such resources.
