I'd like to know more about your experience using this in an undergraduate classroom, and whether you would do it again. That said, I'm much more interested in the when and why.

I’m teaching a class on histories of student activism at Syracuse and I’d love to know not only how to make these collections, but how they could be made sustainable — especially by merging with larger institutional streams. For example, my students are making a Tumblr of a racist incident that occurred at Denny’s in 1997. How can we make sure students can access this in 10 years? 20? 50?

I actually used Omeka in a class a few years ago. I would love to hear how folks would want to use Omeka, or a content platform like it, in the undergraduate classroom. This could be a rich topic I think.

I would be interested in a “a practical discussion of the hows of Omeka,” especially how it could be integrated into an undergraduate course.
