Jane Hart, founder of the Centre for Learning & Performance featured GradeGuru on her blog, Jane’s E-Learning Pick of the Day. Jane’s blog features daily posts regarding e-learning technologies and is a wonderful resource for staying informed with the latest developments in the world of web 2.0 and education. Below is an excerpt from her post about GradeGuru:

“GradeGuru.com is a note sharing platform for college students to share notes, give each other feedback and engage in collaborative learning. We’re also providing students with cash and rewards for their notes because we believe students should earn for sharing their knowledge. Our vision is to create a community of students who can rely on each other for academic support – whether through the feedback they receive on the notes that they contribute, or the ability to download their peers’ notes for free. We are setting out to build a network where students can learn online in a way that is specific to their course at their university – the web 2.0 version of a study group. GradeGuru is a McGraw-Hill Education start-up that was developed based on extensive ethnographic research with students across the UK and US.”

Thanks Jane for your support in advancing open access learning!
