Moodle: using an open learning management system to support student learning
2010 SUNY Freedonia Teaching and Learning conference - "Universal Design for Learning: Accessible and Assistive Technologies to Enhance Student Learning"
Session description: Over the past 18 months, Purchase College has migrated from Blackboard to Moodle for our campus learning management system. Our decision was partially driven by the lower total costs for Moodle as an open source product and our desire to avoid the risks and lack of control associated with commercial applications. Our primary consideration however was that Moodle provides a pedagogically stronger learning platform, and its openness allows us to integrate it with other learning applications that faculty would like to use to promote student engagement.
This session will focus on the pedagogical aspects of Moodle as a learning platform. We will briefly discuss the process and findings Purchase College used to develop a consensus among faculty, students and technology staff to switch to Moodle. Participants will then spend the bulk of the session in a directed exploration of the diverse learning activities in Moodle that promote student engagement and learning, to facilitate discussion of how Moodle compares to ANGEL and Blackboard. We will examine examples of how Moodle’s open architecture allows it to integrate with external Web 2.0 applications, and finally discuss options for no-cost hosted Moodle solutions that will allow participants to evaluate Moodle for their campuses.
Cyber schools
Cyber schools, also known as virtual schools, provide education delivered electronically that separates the teacher and student by time or space. The roles of the student, parent, and teacher in online education involve the student being self-directed, the parent serving as a learning coach to supervise and support, and the teacher creating the learning environment and providing instruction and feedback. Cyber schools offer flexible learning, individualized instruction to benefit different learning styles and needs, and the ability to learn with students from various locations. However, virtual education also presents disadvantages like requiring self-discipline from students, specialized skills from teachers, and lacking social activities compared to traditional schools.
Design and Development of Personal Learning Environment for Higher Education
The document proposes designing and developing a personal learning environment (PLE) to integrate with existing learning management systems (LMS) used in higher education. It outlines limitations of LMS in supporting learning beyond coursework and aims to address this by allowing learners more control over their learning through social software. The research will design a PLE prototype, identify types of social media that could be included, and evaluate the prototype to enhance e-learning and move beyond the boundaries of current institutional learning platforms.
Online Professional Development and Web 2.0
This document discusses the use of online tools to support effective professional development for educators. It outlines several principles of effective professional development, such as being intensive, ongoing, focused on student learning and curriculum. It then describes different types of online tools like course management, voice/content, collaboration, and communication tools that can help implement these principles. Examples of tools discussed include blogs, social bookmarking, and learning management systems. The document concludes that online professional development, if done well, can help address issues like extending training over time and building learning communities.

Types of learning management systems used by top universities
A learning management system (LMS) is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, reporting, automation, and delivery of educational courses, training programs, or learning and development programs.
The learning management system concept emerged directly from e-Learning. Blackboard, Canvas LMS, Moodle, D2L, and Schoology are popular Learning Management Systems used by top higher education institutions globally.
Sometimes, they are known as Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). Some of these Learning Management Systems are customized by the various institutions giving them unique, exciting names.
This document will focus on Learning Management for Schools, and some universities have interesting Learning Management System names.
