[school-discuss] ToolBox will offer a set of FLOSS edutools

[Teemu Leinonen <teemu.leinonen@xxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

We just started to develop a new FLOSS server software for teaching  
and learning. ToolBox is not LMS, neither CSCL tool, nor PLE  
(personal learning environment) / Future VLE.

A key concept behind the software is a "learning pattern" that is a  
combination of content, methods and tools. With ToolBox's tools  
teachers and students can build learning patterns and the components  
of what the patterns are constructed / or deconstructed from.

The software development takes place online. If you are interested  
in, please, get involved in it:

A more human-readable article with early ideas of the ToolBox is  
available in Flosse Posse blog:

the-toolbox-is-in-production

Best regards,
