Classtalk is an online learning environment built on facebook platform by peerglobe. It is an add-on to Facebook social interaction by providing students a new tool to interact with their classmates online.

Being on the leading edge of technology, Peerglobe jumped to the opportunity to release a Facebook version of oycas. Because of the strong background in developing online learning environments, the design and development time spanned less than 4 months and Peerglobe released classtalk in September 2007.

Below we will explain some neat features of Classtalk.

School Specific Courses and Semester

One of the problems with non-school-affiliated online learning environments is that the system has to trust the students to input correct course and semester information. These online learning environments are not to blame as this is the only choice they have. However for each supported school, Classtalk has imported the school specific course and semester information, hence creating a more realistic environment for the students.

Class Network Page

Just as Facebook has a network page for each of the supported school, Each class has a network page of its own as well. This is common portal for the registered students of a class where they can get an instant glimpse of the class students, the class statistics, the current class projects and documents and more.

Document Management

The document management in Classtalk lets students and faculties to share their school documents. Students can share documents with others who are currently taking the same class. And the instructor of a class can share documents with that are currently enrolled to his/her class.
