Evidence-Hub.net rollout

Simon Buckingham Shum, Friday 10 Aug 2012

As part of our Collective Intelligence R&D, for the last few months we’ve been developing the concept of an Evidence Hub, learning user experience lessons from the first example we developed for the Hewlett Foundation on the Open Learning Network project, generifying the shell into one that can be customized for the different communities who have been excited by the concept, and moving to an open source release shortly.

For info and demos go to Evidence-Hub.net
