Here's an interesting article I came across through CNN about a student who used Facebook to create a study group (a collaborative community) and the professor said that it was cheating. Brings to mind interesting thoughts on collaboration, authorship, and socially constructed knowledge. Enjoy.

It was a study group right? At least from what I can understand it was. Where is the harm? I would commend the student for using the current technologies to build collaborative learning. I can't believe he was facing expulsion.
