This set of documents will provide a metaphorical (and also literal) map of the development of COVE. COVE (Collaborative Organization for Virtual Education), a non-profit classroom and publication platform, provides teachers and researchers with two distinct locations for their work: 1) COVE Studio, a password-protected space for the accumulation of public domain, Creative Commons and fair use primary texts that can be easily edited, prepared for annotation, and assembled into custom anthologies for reading and group annotation; and 2) COVE Editions, an open-access publishing platform, which makes it possible to disseminate knowledge: not only peer-reviewed and copy-edited work from various fields, but also flipped-classroom research projects by students. This space makes use of our open-access and open-source publication tools: a timeline-builder (TimelineJS), a map-builder (OpenLayers), a gallery-builder (Drupal), and a Drupal area for group assembly (complete with graphs indicating individual contributions); we have integrated these tools so groups can easily collaborate on projects and build new content.

Joshua King used the timeline-builder and map-builder with students at Baylor in order to supplement a brick-and-mortar exhibit about Elizabeth Barrett Browning at the Armstrong Browning Library. Prof. King reflects upon the experience in a COVE teaching article here:
Kenneth Crowell, who is also one of COVE's administrative directors, was the first person to use COVE's annotation tool in the classroom (Fall 2017) and has been using COVE ever since. Prof. Crowell discusses COVE's vetted primary material in a COVE teaching article:
