Learning standards: Moodle for BETT06 - technical specification

Learning standards: Moodle for BETT06 - technical specification

A number of us in UK schools are putting together an application for Moodle for the prestigious andmuch publicised BETT06 awards. The first stage deadline is rapidly approaching, and part of the documentation required is:

Products must include a technical specification detailing information about standards supported and any products that relate to your entry.


Could anyone here help with this, or perhaps point us in the direction of something that's already been written?
If you'd like to help with the rest of the project we discussing it here, and working on a wiki here.

The BETT show is a big annual exhibition over 4 days in Janaury in London, at which the educational computing industry attempt to sell their products to schools, colleges and Local Authorities, many firms will launch hold off with product launches and the like until the show comes round. The various UK government agencies and professional associations dealing with education and educational computing also have quite a prescence.
Part of the show is the presentation of the awards for products that Helen refers to - lots of publicity and kudos for the winners.
We think Moodle deserves this more than a good number of the commercial products, and think it would be rather nice for open source software to get recognition at this level.

Hi Miles,

Couldn't you just use the Moodle features list (http://moodle.org/doc/?file=features.html) along with any release notes to make it up to date (eg. the authentication modules sych as shibboleth)?

Cheers,

Mark

Thanks Mark,
They want a feature list as well, but this may well be the approach to take in cobbling something together. My guess is that Moodle's feature list is more technical than you see for many commercial products, perhaps?
The other source that occured to me are the notes on architecture from the developer docs.
There's quite an emphasis on the whole standards compliance, interoperability thing in the stuff they ask about.
