e-learning software

One of the terrible things that happen for users, from time to time, is that their usual actions are suddendly made completely unusual by a change of version, because the name (nothing else) of their favourite feature has been changed. We understand that, and we do everything we can to avoid it, but the truth is that some of our naming conventions don't really make sense. For example, a "learning path" is something only a guy with a degree in e-learning understands.

There's a nice comparative study (if I get it right, it's based on analysis a few months back) between e-learning solutions here. The nice thing is it offers a cute chart of 4 axis of analysis, by an external company, so this is more likely to be a neutral result. No mention of Blackboard though...

Although not very reliable per se, the following article, written in 2006, has an interesting set of comments (part by me) about statistics about Moodle, Blackboard/WebCT and Sakai, and Dokeos of course. http://zacker.org/higher-ed-lms-market-penetration-moodle-vs-blackboard-vs-sakai

[digg=http://digg.com/tech_news/Dokeos_1_8_5_released] Dokeos 1.8.5 has been released, after a long 8 months development! Check it out on http://www.dokeos.com/download.php There's a lot to say, so I won't comment about the release itself in this post. You can find out more about this release and what it brings you on the official website, by following the link on the right panel. We are sorry to have kept you waiting for so long for a new version, but we're sure you'll understand why when using it!
