Some ideas and tools that you might find useful for your hybrid course

Hi all,
I've recently come across some tools and ideas that, while not designed specifically for a hybrid course, could well be put to that use. The first is a set of data visualization and presentation tools. They are aimed at working journalists, who need to be able to quickly create visual displays of data for blog posts, web sites and the like, but can be used by anyone wishing to communicate visually.

The other link I want to direct you to is actually a story about a scholar who has decided that when it comes to students using Wikipedia for class work, the old adage to "join 'em" if you can't "beat 'em" might be a very productive approach to take.
