A few days ago a code school raised $85,000 USD on Kickstarter[0] to build a Rails application.
Rails is really stable and has a battle hardened community around it. That's a good combo for teaching, learning and practical usage.
When it comes to teaching / learning / real world usage, the last thing you want to deal with is 18 new versions of 5 different tools every month.
