Hello everybody,

I just got pointed to this and thought you might find this as
interesting as I do:

        https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/news/list-open-source-options-education-published-oss-watch

	A list to help schools find open source alternatives to
   	proprietary software applications was published earlier this
	week by OSS Watch, a service for higher and further education
        institutions in the UK. Introducing the list, OSS Watch
        development manager Mark Johnson says: "Where possible, we’ve
        included real-world examples of their usage."

        The list is divided in seven education areas, such as
	E-Learning, Assessment and Classroom Tools. In the E-Learning
	section, for example, it lists Moodle, Sakai and Canvas as
	open source alternatives. "The Manchester Metropolitan
	University selected Moodle after an extensive review", OSS
	Watch adds, adding a link to a 2010 report by the university.

        [...]

Greetings,

Guido
