[edit] Moving Gnacademy.org content to wikiversity
I'm administrator of http://www.gnacademy.org/ The site has lots of useful information but is dormant due to the lack of community able to maintain it. I'd like to move the content of that site onto wikiversity. There is wiki material on distance learning and a course/degree database. The wiki stuff can be moved easily. The database is harder to move, and could be part of a wikidata project.

[edit] YouTube hunting
YouTube hosts millions of videos, some of them educational. While they may sometimes disappear, it would be good to start finding videos that would be of interest to wikiversity participants, such as lectures and educational demonstrations.
Example: [1]
YouTube learning project: Here you will find a listing of Wikiversity-related entries, some of which were created by Wikiversity participants. Eventually the learning project will provide tips and tricks for browsing, developing content and uploading to YouTube.
YouTube EDU launched in March 2009
