As the original home of WebCT, it is not perhaps a big surprise that it is the most widely adopted CMS in the province of BC, where I live and work. And while that doesn’t look set to change anytime soon on a large scale, 6 institutions have done pioneering working to investigate the viability of Moodle<\/a> as an alternative, and have made the resulting reports available for all to see. The project was funded by my employers, BCcampus<\/a>, through an Online Porgram Development Fund<\/a> grant.<\/p>\n

There is lots here to read – in addition to the final report<\/a> and project recommendations<\/a>, the partners have produced extensive documentation on each of the 10 distinct objectives (including such useful materials as documentation to migrate WebCT 4.1 courses to Moodle<\/a>). And all of it is appropriately delivered via a Moodle site!<\/p>\n

I know at least one of these partners<\/a> has since gone on to announce its official adoption of Moodle as its institution-wide CMS, and that one of them was already firmly a Moodle adopter<\/a>. So whether you are looking for a way out of your current lock-in or looking to buttress your arguments as to why your Moodle pilot should grow, you’ll find some useful evidence here. (If I am sounding slightly partisan here, I have just spent the last few months of my life struggling with getting content out of WebCT servers to interoperate with the rest of the world, and let’s just say I am the worse for wear.)<\/em> – SWL<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
