I am curious as to what other tools schools are migrating to if they =
have
been using Ning. We have some faculty using Ning networks in class =
and
have used it in professional development here at my school. We =
really
liked the ease of use of Ning, the ability to add embedded content =
was
particularly nice allowing video, Prezi, Slideshare and other =
presentation
tools to be incorporated. What migration options have folks found? =
Any
ideas?
