Moodle all over the UK Annual Education Technology Show

16 01 2006

Josie Farmer has been a leading figure in getting Moodle and other Open Source Tools more widely know and used in the UK and European educational circles.  At the recent UK Education Technology Show, Moodle got a very good showing and response which I’m very encouraged by because I really think Moodle is going to be one of those LMSes which survives and grows through community developers into something far more useful and adaptable than the current WebCT/Blackboard giants.  For all the news check out Josie’s Moodlebug posts which have a great roundup of all Moodlisms for the show, and her post over at EdTechUK.

There’s this new concept LMS I saw the other day named Krawler[x] (www.krawlerx.com).

It is a p2p LMS, and uses bit-torrent and other technologies to make content available to contributors / consumers. Do take a look: http://shashark.wordpress.com/2006/01/02/krawlerx-p2p-20-anyone/

Valerine, I had a quick looks at Krawler: interesting idea but seem quite complicated at first view at the p2p structure, while an interesting idea, would send almost any uni computer service into fits I fear!
