Teaching Writing, Collaboration, and Engagement in Global Contexts: The Drupal Alternative to Proprietary Courseware | cyberdash

The slide show (from Feb 16), available through Teaching Writing, Collaboration, and Engagement in Global Contexts: The Drupal Alternative to Proprietary Courseware (cyberdash) is a nice overview of alternatives to propriatary LMS. Having worked globally, I have witnessed the failures of big systems and the power of open systems. The main challenge that remains with the open source solutions is the skill it takes to set up and configure them. From what I hear from my tech friends, this is the territory many of them are working in. I also hear that funding is an issue.
