Open Source eLearning Tools

Tony Karrer

OCTOBER 13, 2010

I was just asked about trends in open source for eLearning and particularly open source eLearning tools. Probably one of the better sources on this is Jane Hart’s Instructional Tools Directory. In addition, she indicates if they are free or cost money – which is not quite the same thing as open source.

FEBRUARY 8, 2010

This high-touch type of interface should enable lots of interactivity, games and simulations. For eBooks, it’s using the ePub format, which is an open source standard allowing digital publications to work on different devices. Share this on del.icio.us. This is a great way to foster engaging learning experiences.

You know one hope that I harbor is that the current interest in games and simulations by our industry doesnt devolve into a factory model-like fascination not with game-based learning but with game templates and rapid development tools for games.

Each new sim genre effort (and flight simulators are an example), will take pioneers willing to go into the unknown. Clay Shirky My latest additions to del.icio.us books futures Web 2.0
