Yes, there is Moodle. However, upon installing it, I found the admin UI to be extremely gaudy, counter-intuitive, and requires it's own learning system just to get it right (ha ha) Does anyone know of any other options out there? Obviously, open source is best, I'd even take some reasonably priced options though that allow for some extensibility. There should be the following capabilities: - Learning tracks - groups of courses/modules - Modules or courses - pages of content, videos, whatever, with or without quizzes and related test-like activities - Reporting / metrics - scores for individuals, groups - User authentication (obviously) - bonus if external authentication or some way to hook into external user auth - Not extremely hard to theme or customize the look - Users should be able to resume where they left off in courses - Mobile support (or some way it can be themed or made very usable for mobile devices, mainly iDevices) - Questions and answers can be randomized, allow for $x retakes, explain why their answer is wrong (or at least a reference to a URL) - Questions can be multiple choice, single choice, short answer, etc. It should be easy for an end user to take tests and move through courses, the course could just be a test - it doesn't necessarily need to be pages of content and such. It should be easy for "teachers" or course editors to be able to modify content and test questions and such. I develop web apps for a living (and have taken hundreds of online tests), and Moodle took me a few trial and errors before I figured out how to associate an answer to a question and then a question to a module, etc. - it also has so many options, it's hard to predict how your course will actually come out in the end. I'm open to suggestions about decently developed/supported modules for systems like Drupal as well.
