111308 -    2.  LearnCentral is a new social learning network for education,
111309 -        sponsored by Elluminate.  More than a social network or a
111310 -        learning community, this free, open environment represents the
111311 -        next logical step of combining asynchronous social networking
111312 -        and the ability to store, organize, and find educational
111313 -        resources with the live, online meeting and collaboration
111314 -        provided by Elluminate technology.
111316 -         ..

111320 -        content, develop best practices, and collaborate on a global
111321 -        level.  While still in its early stages, LearnCentral has the
111322 -        potential to make a significant historical difference in how
111323 -        educators work together for professional development in their
111324 -        own careers.
