No more school as council opens 'learning centres'
I think that you will here a lot about this over the next few years. Both success and failure will benefit our understanding of this movement, which I think is gathering steam in academic circles and even political circles.
I personally think that this is an important direction to be researched in education with my gut reaction being that it is the right direction to move in. Of course, I'll check my gut until I see some results :)

An ELT Notebook: Using YouTube for Vocabulary Development
Nice lesson plan and a good way to get feedback on your lesson plans. Put them up on your blog and ask people their opinions of the lesson plan. You'll notice that someone commented on this the next day saying that they already used it.

Want to do something with American politics? Check this out. This is a collection of videos of 2008 candidates speaking on campaign issues.
Of course they don't say much, but, hey, they're politicians ;-)
If you can't find a topic to discuss in here and some sort of research project, you're just not thinking.
Have fun.

Wow! Super article (white paper) on the use of podcasts in education. I think that this is really well balanced and brings together some current research (what there is of it) to support it's arguments. This is a must-read for anyone interested in implementing podcasts in their courses or across the curriculum.

Virtual Games Hone Real Business Skills
NPR : Study: Virtual Games Hone Real Business Skills
This is somewhat old news in the gaming community, but it's always nice to hear it on NPR. This piece relates findings on an IBM study that online gaming (they are mostly referring to games that have social aspects to them, namely Massively Multiplayer Online Games--MMOGs) sharpens skills of collaboration, self-organization, and risk-taking.

Pedagogical affordances of syndication, aggregation, and mash-up of content on the Web
TESL-EJ June 2007 -- Pedagogical affordances of syndication, aggregation, and mash-up of content on the Web
Barbara Dieu and Vance Stevens are two VERY active and very smart players in the field of CALL. This is a great article that gives an overview of popular technologies. Some we are using and talking about and some others that we are now (we only have so much time).
If you have time (I know, probably not now), I suggest taking a look at this. It will give you a lot of food for thought.
