dotLRN has been translated into more language: greek!

 This language will be available in the next release of dotLRN (2.4) scheduled by early 2008.

The information about memberships, benefits, consortium duties funded by membership, and specific contributions to the consortium is now available at the .LRN Consortium Membership page.

There are different levels of membership depending the organization type, use of .LRN and resources it has. The membership helps to support .LRN growth, many new features are coming and the consortium is leading the innovation.

.LRN is Open Source and free to use, members of the .LRN Consortium have found the Consortium an excellent place to invest in the improvements for the platform. The .LRN Leadership Group and the .LRN Board of Directors serve as committed volunteers without economic retribution from the .LRN Consortium.

A new version of .LRN is available for download.

The focus on this release was mainly on improving accessibility, within the Zen project.

IMS-LD player has been included.
Accessibility: level AA for all .LRN packages.

Support for oracle and postgres. 

OpenACS/.LRN Conference in Guatemala: Call for Contributions

The next .LRN conference will be hosted in Guatemala by the Galileo University, from February 12th - 16th, 2008.

The conference is the 6th of a series which focuses on the development of community  based e-learning environments (primarily built with the .LRN framework). The conference offers multiple activities for users and developers of the framework as well as for people interested in the mentioned topics in general. It is as well an opportunity to present and discuss you own work with the core developers and influence the development of the framework.

Pre-register at the conference site. See you soon!
 

The integration allows .LRN teachers to seamlessly add LAMS lessons to their .LRN courses. These lessons are sequences of Learning Activities that teachers design using the LAMS drag-and-drop authoring environment.

LAMS2 is quite different from its version 1 release, which it was also integrated with .LRN. For more info, hit the LAMS wiki docs.

I have set up a LAMS2 - .LRN 2.3.1 demo server for those of you who might want to give it a spin.

Also, here is a two minute animation on how it all works.

More info, source and tech docs, available in the LAMS2 .LRN wiki page.
