Twitter Summary: New website Coursekit to challenge Blackboard as new Learning Management System.
20 year old Joseph Cohen received a $1 million dollar seed funding for his idea Coursekit which is supposed to be a more user-friendly Blackboard. The idea is to imagine a nice, clean facebook news feed for students and instructors to communicate with one another.
Blackboard currently owns 93% of the market but Coursekit is getting a lot of buzz and is trying to make a nice push.
