[Opensource] Moodle Teaching Techniques - Book review

[Roland Gesthuizen]

There have been some good discussions on this list about resources and books
to support an opensource suite of tools. Here is an interesting book review
about Moodle. I am sourcing a copy for our school library and staff. :-)

Moodle is a well-known and widely used online Course Management System. It
is based on Apache and PHP and is normally associated with a MySQL database
and GNU/Linux. The application has high market penetration and recognition,
especially for schools. However, no matter how good a tool is, a poor
teacher will only generate painful online learning experience. Moodle
Teaching Techniques published by Packt and authored by William H. Rice IV
focuses on best practices for constructing learning solutions.
