How to Name a Course to Encourage Enrollment « Absorb LMS Blog
You may create the best, most engaging content in the world. Unfortunately, if you name the course something like “Establishing Guidelines and Policies for Inter-Departmental Budgetary Reporting,” you’ll have created the courseware equivalent of the kid we knew at school who ate lunch alone. Sure, children would attend his birthday party if they had to but secretly, they wished he’d be a bit more fun to be around. Kudos to LeadershipIQ for great topics and fantastic titles. Based on the titles alone, I’d sign up for all of these. These courses are courageous and resonate with experiences we’ve all had in our careers.

The Ingenious Business Model Behind Coursekit, A Tumblr For Higher Education | Fast Company
At universities, educational software largely means enterprise-scale, expensive, feature-stuffed "learning management systems."DreamBox Learning, an adaptive e-learning platform for students, has raised $11 million in new funding led by Netflix CEO Reed Hastings (who is investing through the Charter School Growth Fund), and Kleiner Perkins partner John Doerr (this is a personal investment for Doerr). GSV Capital Corp. and Deborah Quazzo also participated round. This brings DreamBox’s total funding to $18 million. Launched in 2008, DreamBox Learning offers more than 500 online math lessons, puzzles, games and curriculums for schools and home schools, targeting young students in kindergarten through fifth grade. DreamBox assesses each student’s mathematical understanding on an ongoing basis, providing the most suitable hints and encouragement at the right pace for that child, and offers the next personally appropriate activities as subsequent choices. The company also offers assessment tools for teachers to understand a student’s comprehension and proficiency.

Open source E-learning platform, Scorm LMS and LCMS
By technology side, during this months we worked very hard to improve the Cloud support: this has been done by creating a Back-end system for cloud based LMS (This system is called Docebo ERP) and by interfacing our scorm player and learning object repository with Content distribution Network like Amazon Cloudfront. These improvements will be part of Docebo 5.0 release, that has been published today on our website. There will now be 2 editions of Docebo Learning Management System, the Docebo Cloud (SAAS - As a service) formula (to be installed only to Docebo Cloud infrastructure) and the Docebo Premium formula, that can be installed on Docebo Cloud infrastructure, but also on your own server/on your customer's server. The Premium formula has the same features of the SAAS one, but it is installable on third party infrastructure and it is released under the Docebo Open License (yes Docebo 5.0 is still Open!).Curriculum Find and Browse - Find the content you need from multiple sources from one place quickly With keyword, subject/strand and standards browsing, finding the right activity is a breeze.

Si vous avez déjà été membre d'un groupe de travail en ligne, vous savez qu'une petite fraction des membres seulement participe activement, et qu'il est indispensable que le groupe soit animé. Si vous avez déjà été animateur d'un groupe de travail en ligne, vous savez qu'il s'agit d'une tâche difficile, chronophage, et qu'on manque parfois d'idées pour relancer les contributions. Voici un texte qui fournit des pistes d'action très concrètes pour mieux animer un groupe de travail en ligne.“It’s mostly a question of how students interact with each other. That is pretty much everything for a class. For that, Coursekit is really helpful.” “By the end of the 15 week class, if someone's followed the Coursekit course, they've got pretty much all the things my class offers, minus the physical contact.”
