  &lt;div style=&quot;font-size: 0.9em;&quot;&gt;The British Open University took upon itself in 2005, together with the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, the task of bringing online learning into the future. Unusual is that it didn't decide on Moodle for merely financial reasons or that it didn't go for professional support. &lt;/div&gt; &lt;br /&gt;

      <title> The Open University UK: creating a win-win situation by sharing code and content, Report from Gregor Bierhals,  Open Source Observatory and Repository</title>

  &lt;div style=&quot;font-size: 0.9em;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Type:&lt;/b&gt; Report&lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;div style=&quot;font-size: 0.9em;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Author:&lt;/b&gt; Gregor Bierhals,  Open Source Observatory and Repository&lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;div style=&quot;font-size: 0.9em;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Language:&lt;/b&gt; English&lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;div style=&quot;font-size: 0.9em;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Published:&lt;/b&gt;  27 October 2009&lt;/div&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;div style=&quot;font-size: 0.9em;&quot;&gt; From a technical perspective, the choice of Moodle as the OU's VLE shows how Open Source products can be well capable of competing with proprietary solutions. It was and is seen as the best available solution that would meet the OU's demands on stability, flexibility, scalability, and also very important: support. Compared to commercial software deployments, Moodle does not rely on one support partner, but features a community of users world wide. With more than 2,5 million registered courses and roughly 28 million users, this is a substantial source of feedback and information, which is invaluable to the work of the OU. By contributing to this community with their own developments, they create a win-win situation, as their tools improve with all the feedback and assistance, and all others users benefit from the additional functionalities added by the OU.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;br /&gt;

  &lt;div style=&quot;font-size: 0.9em;&quot;&gt;From Feldstein's last paragraph:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;40px;&quot;&gt;My point here isn’t to tout the merits of Moodle or Sakai over Blackboard, or the merits of Moodle or Sakai support vendors over Blackboard, Inc. Those are empirical questions, and they are somewhat individual to the needs of schools. Rather, my point is that Blackboard is making demonstrably false and/or irrelevant arguments against open source, even as they tout their “openness” and promote their open source Blackboard add-on community. &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;br /&gt;

  &lt;div style=&quot;font-size: 0.9em;&quot;&gt;WebCT a annoncé en 2004 qu'elle ne supporterait plus la version de son logiciel qui était implantée à l'UQAM. Dans le même souffle, elle faisait part à ses clients d'une importante augmentation des coûts de licence d’une nouvelle version de WebCT appelée Vista. L'UQAM a donc décidé de mettre sur pied un &amp;quot;Comité institutionnel des plates-formes d'apprentissage en ligne&amp;quot;, dont le mandat était d'évaluer les solutions disponibles pour remplacer WebCT.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Ce comité a opté pour l'adoption de MOODLE. La démarche qui a présidé à ce choix est largement documentée dans le rapport que le comité a remis aux instances de l'UQAM, en décembre 2005. &lt;/div&gt; &lt;br /&gt;

  &lt;div style=&quot;font-size: 0.9em;&quot;&gt;Course management systems, like any other technology, have an inherent purpose implied in their design, and therefore a built–in pedagogy. Although these pedagogies are based on instructivist principles, today’s large CMSs have many features suitable for applying more constructivist pedagogies. Yet few faculty use these features, or even adapt their CMS very much, despite the several customization options. This is because most college instructors do not work or play much on the Web, and thus utilize Web–based systems primarily at their basic level. The defaults of the CMS therefore tend to determine the way Web–novice faculty teach online, encouraging methods based on posting of material and engendering usage that focuses on administrative tasks. A solution to this underutilization of the CMS is to focus on pedagogy for Web–novice faculty and allow a choice of CMS. &lt;/div&gt; &lt;br /&gt;

  &lt;div style=&quot;font-size: 0.9em;&quot;&gt;Martin Dougiamas, best known for being “the guy who started Moodle”, understands better than most the challenges and opportunities associated with distance learning. Growing up in the remote Australian desert meant that Martin was educated via “The School of the Air”, being guided by a teacher 600 miles away. Nowadays, such learning is not unusual and Moodle is one of the latest software platforms that encourages self-learning and online community-learning. Dougiamas will participate in a pre-conference workshop and deliver a keynote speech at OEB 2009. In the following interview, he talks about the expansion and future of Moodle.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
