Diane: This is a great idea. I think @[[susan-bennett-brady:User:Susan Bennett Brady]] wants to do it with her college students as well. It is on @[[hugh-brock:User:Hugh Brock]]’s list to make the journals private, or viewable to specific people. We need to implement “groups” to make it happen….hopefully within the next few weeks—oh Hugh?

Yeah. The idea would be that you would have a separate, presumably smaller set of people who you specifically allow to see *your* practice journal.

It’s interesting b/c we originally were thinking about college students or young adults who might be likely to be working on a piece and want their friends to be able to see and comment on that. However if it’s going to be a real journal, I can certainly imagine a case where you really only want to share it with your teacher — and this is something we would also like to support.

The good news is the springs and levers to make this happen are all in place. It’s just a matter of me creating a user interface people will understand to manage it :). Or, as my colleagues say, “a mere matter of programming.”

Sigh…

Hmm… something shows up on your Studio feed, but no, no notification is created. I should fix that.

Right now your practice journal is viewable by all your friends. It is on our to-do list to give you the ability to create groups for private viewing between whoever you designate (student and teacher for example). @[[hugh-brock:User:Hugh Brock]] can you weigh in?
