Because of all the new reqirements of NCOEMS and changes in the EMS Education field. We have just started our online training with moodle hosted by Site Ground. Total cost for a year of hosting $20 dollars and Moodle is free. We are very please and have almost 200 students. I love the way you can put streaming video directly into moodle. I have used Blackboard as a student and Instructor.

Blackboard is diversifying because it has to! Web 2.0 is taking over elearning. There is going to be a lot of shifting around going on. Mainly to open source and free systems. The real question is which system can actually generate revenue for the college. That’s what they need.

Related to Vivie’s comments about ETUDES usage increasing, there is no reason to doubt that is right. Note that the survey was of AACC members as opposed to ETUDES Consortium Members so that the data would only apply to trends at the member Community Colleges. That’s a caveat that would apply with all of the findings.

To get a copy of the complete survey contact ITC at cmullins@itcnetwork.org.

Steven, you ask a very interesting question–one that I’d like to see put to Blackboard’s executive leadership. By both independent measures (like this survey, which covers one particular market segment) and Blackboard’s own reported figures of total numbers of Basic and Enterprise customers, they are losing LMS licensing customers at a rapid pace. So when Bb talks about their “renewal rate,” what, exactly, is being renewed? And by whom?
