Hi Mel! The forums definitely exist, they were the first thing had. http://socialmediaclassroom.com/host/peeragogy/ They are, however, "closed" in the sense that you need to join the project to get access -- however, anyone can join (email how...@rheingold.com). The next steps are outlined here, http://peeragogy.org/peeragogy-org-roadmap/ Since we just published version 1.0 of the book on January 1, we probably need a little bit of time before we put together our next big shared milestone. For now the tasks there are mostly small things that anyone can help out with. (Also, project members can add new items to the roadmap at any time - I'm trying to encourage this.) One broad aim this year is to gather "case studies" from people who use (and critique) the first version of the book. We'll probably re-build it once every one or two months (version 1.1 etc.), depending on how active the changes are. > Thanks to you and your colleagues for making this, and to Neophyte for > bringing it up (I hadn't seen it before).

Your graduate class could potentially be a case study if you'd like to write a short summary of how it goes.
