I'm a moodle fan
I'm a huge ra ra fan of moodle. I don't think there is another lms that has the feature set that moodle has. It's better than blackboard and built from the ground up with education in mind. Having said that... Moodle takes some horsepower to run. If you want to install it, create courses, and learn moodle. This is the place to do it. However I found that a class of 12 students in a course at the same time trying to take an online test would bring the course to a standstill. It seemed that 4 students was about the max for a godaddy install. Remember that there is LOTS of bidirectional information and this isn't purely one direction and you get the picture. Good luck!!
Good and Smooth Installation!
Thanks for making it easy. I had problems before. But after 6 months lot has been changed. it's works superb !
great but like a quilt
By "quilt," I mean that the program's core offers very little which forces one to add all kinds of modules. But their installation is quite haphazard as there isn't a uniform "module install" within the UI. Therefore, one has to trudge around via FTP and, because each module has its own inherent quirks, figure out what goes where in the file structure, activation, and then its use. BUT, if you're comfortable doing that, it's an excellent program - they just need to get it together, I think.
Seemed to do everything it said it did
We just didn't need it, or use it.
Moodle 1.9.4
Moodle is very "techie". If you want to get full use out of it, you had better have a database programmer conversant in php. Trying to get help from the huge Moodle community is like trying to pull teeth.
Database is slooooow. Otherwise, it meets needs, but not if you are looking for good performance.
