Well, it did not go too well; not as I was hoping, anyway. Looking back, these might be the reasons:
1. Just like with everything else, implementing new idea(s) takes time. It was not enough to simply show the site to the students once and then expect them to come back (even for the homework!)
2. As we all know, the content is the key (and to build it takes time. A lot of time!)
3. In order to become an important part of the course, this site will have to be integrated into the course curriculum and lesson planning (on a regular basis!)
With that in mind, I am starting a new session....Reflection to follow!
