New Zealand early adopter of Moodle - Scoop
“New Zealand has taken the lead internationally in adopting Moodle software”, said Dr Reynold Macpherson, CEO of Waiariki. “The February 3 and 4 conference at Waiariki was the largest ever to date with over 170 participants, with many more participating through the net”, he said. “Spending on site licenses is apparently switching into support for elearning design”. Moodle is a learning management software replacing local and propriety software because it is free, uses open source code, employs constructivist pedagogies and can help boost access by remote communities.
