Hi all, I'm transitioning my class from a web 1.0 organizational
structure (hand-tooled html and java: these pages were like my babies,
it's sad to say goodbye to them!) to a more 2.0 place:  I'm using
wikispaces for overall course structure, blogs to replace diaries, prezi
instead of PowerPoint (thanks for that tip, Jorg), animoto...  I'm
really excited, and the students are on-board completely.  

My general question is: for those that have already made that
transition, what are some pitfalls that can be avoided, and what are
some general words of guidance you can offer?

My more specific question is: with regard to the wiki, how much Spanish
production can I or should I expect from the students there?  Or, should
that be a langauge neutral area: the importance of content superceding
that of language production?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
