Much ideas indeed, and much motivation ! Very nice. This is going to be very great. There's only one thing that bothers me :

One special thing about wiki-learning is it doesn't require appointments. I find it very interesting that there would be an irc channel where students from the same class can help each other, ask questions, etc. I find it very interesting that "teachers" would come on those channels to give some details. What I don't want is seeing teachers holding courses on IRC, because this system excludes the student from another time zone, who is sleeping while this happens.

please tell me if I didn't get the point.
