Moodle

I've been using another awesome open source tool.
Moodle.org
For the last month or so at my day job I've been moving almost all of my curriculum to a Moodle server and it is great. I re-purposed an old Dell GX 240 as an Ubuntu server and it is serving about 24 or so students at any given time. One thing that is different from most Moodle instances is that it has no outward facing connection since my students in the prison aren't allowed to use the Internet at all.
A great benefit to using "on-line" curriculum is that my students get a great deal of hands on experience with an Internet browser which will help them immensely when they get out of prison in searching for employment.
I'll be posting more about the system in the next few days so keep checking back for updates.
