UWA's new Learning Management System (LMS) uses the Moodle Software. Martin Dougiamas is the creater of Moodle in its humble beginings as a PhD project designed to put educational principles of social constructionism into a learning management system. Now Moodle is a rapidly expanding, world-wide, open-source software with a community-based focus on development and learning. Martin will speak to us about the phenomenon of Moodle, and develop the UWA community understanding of the principles on which it is based, current development and future directions.
