E-Learning - The next wave to reach the masses!!

E-learning an area that is of immense interest to me personally. Been working on various projects over the years and have found many of them wanting in some areas and not a single product being able to fill the void.

As part of this exercise, I ended up evaluating a few of the open source products that leverage on many platforms that already exist. For example the LMS based on Joomla is a case in point.

One of the most interesting of the Open Source projects is ILIAS. This product provides interactivity as well as custom builds for each of the teacher student groups. There are oodles of other projects that have reached a stage where they can be effectively used. These include moodle, Sakai, OLAT and many more.

One of the issues that often crop up in the selection of course ware is the proprietary nature of the content that needs to be generated within the LMS rather than porting content available from different sources. The standard for such work is SCORM. It is imperative to look at products that are SCORM compliant as content - The main reason for success or failure of a project hinges upon.

Without content any product or service is doomed for failure. Would update the blog with the links such that any similar user can look for such content.
