Learn about something new every day: Curriki

Just heard about this in my NTEN Office Hours chat today.

"Curriki, a play on the words 'curriculum' and 'wiki', is a nonprofit organization that is building the first and only Internet site for Open Source Curriculum (OSC), which will provide universal access to free curricula and instructional materials for grades K-12.

We are focusing initially on developing an online repository for K-12 curricula in the areas of mathematics, science, technology, reading and language arts, and languages. We want this repository to attract everyone from educators, students and parents, to programmers, instructional designers, authors and public officials throughout the world to contribute or freely access quality learning materials."

Check it out here. Here is the FAQ. Any school education-related associations listening? You should get in there and take a look. Interesting concept, I plan to watch to see where it goes.

  1. Thanks for sharing this. I am wondering if they building content together or simply adding links to their content in other places?
