Deploying a Successful Learning Content and Student Management System using Open Source Technologies

Abstract

The UWI Open Campus is unique among the four campuses of the University of the West Indies. Unlike the other campuses, the UWI Open Campus operates in a distributed environment through the Caribbean and offers multi-mode teaching and learning services through virtual and physical site locations across the Caribbean region. In this environment, the UWI Open Campus must find ways of meeting the challenges of operating in such a varied environment.
