@PeggySemingson @peggysemingson have you seen Wavelength with micro.blog integration: http://www.manton.org/2018/04/wavelength-for-micro-blog.html $10 a month for a platform built on #indieweb that can be easily used for #GoOpen classes. Except for the app only working on an inferior operating system (kidding Android always sucked at audio editing until very recently...but I don't teach rich kids) it looks super promising.

I have never assigned a book in any #highered class that wasn't openly available (unless department req) but I am thinking of trying micro.blog subscriptions with podcasting. Be $50 a semester or so (going on five months) per student.

Though I would lose the domains of Own's One aspect. Would still need a static homepage, profile pages, etc that I have students build now in Wordpress.
