Description: I am here to trial http://p2theme.com and learn how to add and build this in to a WP site to work with a small community of students. Privacy and issue so in the real site I would have to be password protected.

To create a checklist of ‘guidance for running open courses’ to support somebody else’s work in open education who is building such a list
