There's a great post on O'Reilly today that exemplifies open source science and one form of what we are calling "participatory learning." A. Garrett Lisi is using Wikis to support Open Source Science. Read and watch the video at: http://broadcast.oreilly.com/2008/09/lisi-on-a-wiki.html

Here is a great article on the Planetizen site about the Black Cloud environmental game, set in LA and soon to move to Cairo too, that was one of the winners of the 2007 Digital Media and Learning Competition. A fantastic project!
