Moodle
Moodle stands for Modular Object Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment.

There are no separate programs to install. If you can use word processing and surf the Internet, you can use Moodle.

Moodle was designed by educators who saw the need to create a flexible learning platform which focuses on active learning and collaboration. This is reflected in a customizable course layout and many different built-in features to collaborate, to share and construct knowledge.
