The on-demand
learning management system (LMS) allows individual instructors to teach
online with included content creation, blogging, multimedia
integration, evaluation tools, and portal customization tools.
Instructors sign up and receive their own online learning portal from
which to enroll students and run unlimited courses. Developed almost
entirely on Power Macs and PowerBooks, the software aims to increase
usability and accessibility to online education.
I like it
I've been using it for a couple weeks now to build a couple courses. I'm going to try it out on my students in the new year.
The system certainly is free - the company seems to make money by taking 8% of any pay course. But they charge nothing for free courses. Neat.
It would be nice if the system allowed me to see how often students are online. I got a polite response that it is in the works. Maybe if we all request it I'll have it in time for when my course starts.
Also, I found a bug on the setup page which they responded to (and fixed) right away.
I encourage anyone to give Nuvvo a try. There doesn't seem to be anything else out there like this.
