Re: Recommendations of LMS

[Ramaseshan S]

   Hi  Jonathan,
   I have recently started using OpenEdX
   ([1]https://github.com/edx/edx-platform) and been pretty impressed with
   it. OpenEdX is the same code that power edx.org . There are 2
   limitations that come with openedx
   1. It only supports ubuntu 16.04 (tough docker containers are
   available)[Not Recommended]
   2. It is quite resource heavy(Requires MySQL, Mongo, Elastic with
   python + Django)
   Considering your running environment, I would recommend you
   Moodle(Moodle.org)

   As I have not tried none of them, I cannot recommend none, yet there
   is the list of Learning Management Systems:
   [3]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_learning_management_systems
   Myself, when creating Learning Management System I would specifically
   demand that computers users, learners, use a dedicated computer that
   runs free operating system, and then I would prefer one local network
   database, we can think of it as a school centralized database, and one
   remote database for task assignments and collection of data.
   Data from remote database would be transferred to centralized
   database.
   I would then mostly use Emacs and various free software tools for task
   assignments and collection. For example LaTeX equations could be
   prepared by using TeXmacs and submitted through Emacs, not necessarily
   browsers.
   There would be no exclusion of some possible tool that can help in
   learning and no limitation to browser environment only.
