More proof of open source’s burgeoning effects in the field of course management systems - this Belgian company has taken the open source CMS Claroline and run with it in a value-added hosting/development/services/support model. News to me was that they have made strides developing a SCORM import tool, for which the lack of widespread support amongst many of the open source CMS has at times been used for an excuse not to adopt or investigate them. No longer! (see also Atutor in this regard). And for North American users, particularly those in the West, a small note that at least one of their customers, Washington State Community College, is nearby. - SWL

    Looks interesting!

    I was wondering why I hadn’t heard of Washington State CC, then I followed your link, and found out it’s in Ohio! Now I’d call that confusing!

    Cheers - Oren

    Oren, that’s hysterical! I had automatically assumed that Washington State CC was in, well, Washington State, and thus somewhat of a neighbor to us in British Columbia. How embarassing! Thanks for pointing that out, cheers, Scott.

    Check Moodle, the more vibrant open source e-learning platform developers/users community on the net. SCORM module is comming!
