Hi All
LAMS is a Learning Activity Management system that was launched earlier
this year with support from Dfes and is open source. It uses a Flash based
API and runs over Jboss and Apache on Windows/Linux. The product allows
students and a teacher to quickly build and track on-line collaborations in
different combinations. It is quite a different approach to a VLE
experience that is well worth checking out. There is an on-line demo link
that shows how its drag and drop interface works. It pretty powerful and
might spawn some ideas we could use.

Has any one in the community deployed LAMS yet or is considering giving it
a trial?
Thanks
