This document lists 10 things that Hans de Zwart likes about Moodle, an open-source learning management system. Some of the key points highlighted include:
1. Moodle's philosophy is based on constructivism, constructionism, and social constructivism.
2. Moodle has strong leadership from Martin Dougiamas and an engaged community that is helpful and focused on collaboration.
3. Moodle is highly adaptable and can be used across many different levels of education and organizations with a large user base contributing to solved problems.
4. I like to talk about:

26. Yochai Benkler: „Technology creates
feasibility spaces for social practice. Some
things become easier and cheaper, others
become harder and more expensive to do or
prevent under different technological
conditions.“

27. Course Facilitator:
This is by far the best online
discussion we've had, in terms of
participants responding to eachother.
I think the most likely explanation is
the overall appearance of the Moodle
system (the Teletop facility wasn't
that different, but somehow it didn't
seem to encourage responses).
