Integrating Drupal, Moodle and Elgg

Stumbled across this interesting, but old, article that focuses on an example integration of Drupal, Moodle and Elgg, relating to Matt’s earlier post about collaboration with Columbia and Brown. Some interesting ideas here – enabling connections between VLE, portfolio and content management systems, including public facing web sites. I would expect some political implications regarding who runs (owns) what though! If you have time it’s worth reading the discussion/comments too.

Languages Collaboration

Last week the Language Centre‘s Herve Didiot-Cook (Language Co-ordinator, French) hosted visitors from Columbia & Brown Universities. The main purpose of the visit was to look at ways of sharing online teaching material across institutions. Staff from CLT were heavily involved in the meetings and the presentations which included:

  • Use of Drupal for organsing / storing teaching material (Columbia University)
  • The i-Tunes U pilot (Brown University)
  • Use of LAMS for creating sequences of online activities (LSE)
  • Overview of the UK’s JORUM repository (LSE)
  • Overview of Fedora software and the MIDESS Project (LSE)

Staff from all the institutions are keen to work together and pilot projects will follow soon to take this forward.  More later…
