Hi Nea, I assume you face a pretty hard challenge. First of all are you attending http://cs225.net/expo/home.htm ?

Some hints:

- Install .LRN and fill it with content, playing around with the features it provides.
- Read the FAQ. Try to remember that you read it when coming across problems.
- Check out https://openacs.org/education/.

Your goal should be to get a demo site up with some content which you feel comfortable with demonstrating and talking about. This assumes you should demo the system and not actually hack it.

Play around with additional packages that are not necessarily installed with dotlrn (check yoursite.com/admin). Check out the Concord demo at http://lrnsolutions.com.

Hope this helps.
