The Glass Bees at bavatuesdays
The insanely irresponsible advertising for BlackBoard 8 suggests that Academic Suite release 8.0 will “enhance critical thinking skills” and “improve classroom performance.” What LMS can do this? What Web 2.0 tool can do this? This is total bullshit, how can they make such an irresponsible claim? These things are not done by technology, but rather people thinking and working together. Our technology may afford a unique possibility in this endeavor by bringing disparate individuals together in an otherwise untenable community, yet it doesn’t enhance critical thinking or improve classroom performance, we do that, together.

An Outsourced Open Source LMS and a Pot of Gold?
The total cost of ownership comparison led us to adopt a remotely hosted open source solution. We'll examine the facts, figures, and progress of moving from WebCT to Moodle and integrating with Banner.
A real comparison of costs - OS vs Proprietary
