Beyond School

After my semi-literate support technician nuked my entire VPS server – Moodle and Wordpress MU, including a year of student blogs from last year – I managed to restore a backup after several scares.

So the blogs are saved. Moodle is back.

And so is a prototype of the Project Global Cooling website.

We’ll give the site its own url, independent of my school’s blogging site. I just want that to be done by a student who wants to learn the whole process of buying a URL, hosting it on a server, installing the software, and managing the website.

That’s part of what PGC is about: letting them learn to do what I’ve learned to do for my school. When they hit the real world, these skills should come in handy.
