Hi All
This is a recent publication by Becta. Is a really short description of
what a Learning Platform or VLE (Virtual Learning Environment) it’s worth
a read.

AN INTRODUCTION TO LEARNING PLATFORMS
Recently published advice and guidance document for support providers,
explaining the potential value of electronic learning environments and the
issues associated with them.
This title is part of a series of publications aimed at helping LEAs and other
intermediaries support schools, colleges and education organisations in working
towards sustainable, embedded use of ICT.
It has been collaboratively written by staff from the Content and Institutional
Development directorates who are now planning to publish an in-depth guide to
learning platforms in summer 2005.
