## Beskriuwing

**THIS PLUGIN IS STILL UNDER DEVELOPMENT AND HAS NO WORKING FUNCTIONALITY. CHECK
BACK JANUARY 2012.**

UMatter2Us turns WordPress into a web-based [learning management system](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_management_system)(
LMS).
 The primary motivation behind this effort is the perceived deficiency of 
existing tools, e.g. Blackboard, for the effective creation of a [learner-centered classroom](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student-centred_learning)
environment.

The name of the system is a double entendre:

 * **You Matter to Us**
   This interpretation acknowledges the [social constructivist pedagogy](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_constructivism)
   that underlies the system. The system is designed to foster a learning community
   in which all members work to help others have rich, meaningful learning experiences.
   In such an environment, every member of the community is important–you matter
   to us–we wouldn’t have as deep an experience without you.
 * **University Matter, To Us**
   Members of a learner-centered classroom see a college
   education not as a means to an end, but as an end in and of itself. The system
   is designed to foster an intrinsic love of learning that will carry on throughout
   life. It is designed to produce “enlightened citizens who live meaningful and
   productive lives” through self-aware, reflective study. It’s how we see university
   matter, the stuff you study in college.

The basic principles upon with the system is built:

 * [Social Constructivist Pedagogy](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_constructivism)
 * [Mastery learning approach](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mastery_learning)
 * Self-directed, flexible learning
 * All members of the learning community are learners, including the “professor”;
   all are equals
 * Mutual trust, respect and support

Key features of the system include:

 * Robust peer and self-evaluation tools designed to make all community members 
   competent to recognize quality as a precursor to producing quality work
 * Multiple paths for achieving all learning goals allowing community members to
   select or create paths most appropriate to their own learning styles
 * “Community health indicators” that allow community members to monitor their own
   and each other’s learning trajectories. These indicators will alert community
   members when a peer is in need of attention or assistance.
 * Flexible messaging which takes advantage of multiple modes of communication, 
   e.g. email, text messaging, chat, Twitter, Facebook, Google+, phone; allows members
   to send and receive messages in the manner that suits them best.

### Where is the gradebook?

There is not now, nor never will be, a gradebook in UMatter2Us. Grades inhibit learning
and as such have no place in a learning management system.
