Open source , for many, is a bit of a nerve-racking term. Open source as it pertains to Learning Management Systems (LMS) essentially means that the code is freely available for anyone to download and use anytime and anywhere in the world. Additionally, an open-source LMS offers more customization, functionality, and other benefits compared to closed-source software because of its flexible nature.

The presentation than briefly turned into a debate between open-source and proprietary systems. Now, this was not the first time when someone asked me to compare open source vs. proprietary systems, and I am sure it won’t be the last. So I thought I will try to be as objective as possible (even though we sell proprietary LMS) and present how I see open source vs. proprietary LMS debate. I neither love nor hate proprietary or open source systems.

In it he points to the learning space and says that the current status of open-source learning applications is: Innovators - Elgg Learning Landscape and several others Early Adopters - Moodle and a few others Early Majority - nobody Late Majority - forget about it I would tend to agree with him that there are relatively few open-source learning applications, but would add a few thoughts.

Since cmi5 was first released in 2016, there’s been a missing piece that has slowed its adoption. From development to procurement, tools are needed to support adoption of cmi5 and xAPI within the DoD to meet distributed learning policy (DoDI 1322.26) related to learning analytics and interoperability. Most importantly, there has not been an authoritative source or governance of the cmi5 specification as we had with the SCORM conformance test suite.

Based on the ELN discussions, here’s my top 10: Awareness: it’s difficult for L&D to keep up to date with and evaluate the sheer volume of new tools, hence it’s easier to wait to see what tools get adopted by others in significant numbers.
