Prosebox was chosen for the blog itself due to the ability to separate entries according to topics. Additionally, anyone who wishes to create an account and interact with this blog can create an anonymous identity to do so.
Anonymity
The rationale for anonymity enables users to separate real life identities from online identities for a variety of reasons. First of all, learning and interacting in a public space can create a lot of anxiety for some. Therefore anonymity helps reduce the levels of anxiety one might experience.

There are a number of reasons not included here, but for the sake of brevity, the focus is on the two previously stated.

*Content and Illustration, by Casey Skoog.
This slideshow/screencast is only four slides. It is a demo module to represent the sequence-able, but also stand-alone components. The idea is for content to be accessible for low-budget classroom, or distance education, as well as independent learning. Feedback welcome!*
