http://sassmaster6445.blogspot.com/2008/10/meier-article.html
Leadership in Instructional Design and Educational Technology. Monday, October 6, 2008. What do you need to have a democracy? Diverse opinions and a way to work together with those diverse opinions.

Multimedia: Flash Final
http://sassmaster6560.blogspot.com/2008/07/flash-final.html
