Well, this is really what moodle was created for. Especially considering its the main tool used in all XS server implmentations and is in use in at least 40% of British schools. I'm not sure about the American numbers, but pretty sure it must be highly used there too. Creating courses in moodle is not only easy, but extremely powerful, and can be easily shared with other teachers. There are existing general moodle implementations, though none have enough content, including the sugarlabs one (<a href="http://schools.sugarlabs.org">schools.sugarlabs.org</a>) I'm focusing my own efforts on <a href="http://linux-for-education.org">linux-for-education.org</a>, where little by little we're growing the site. The latter has 5 sugar based courses I created and several ubuntu and opensuse courses. Apart from the courses, the glossaries and database modules link straight into the course content, allowing students to easily look up terms used in courses that might be confusing. kind regards, David Van Assche <div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Sep 10, 2009 at 3:27 AM, Bryan Berry <<a href="mailto:bryan@olenepal.org">bryan@olenepal.org</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> > From: Caroline Meeks <<a href="mailto:caroline@solutiongrove.com">caroline@solutiongrove.com</a>> > Subject: [IAEP] Where should we put Lesson Plans?

It has an existing community of teachers to work w/ and it is a good tool, geared to their needs -- Bryan W.
