Why Create Drupal Learning Modules when there is Moodle?

It depends on how "social" the learning is.  If the learning communities are closed (learners only), and the activities are set (not a lot of creative input from students about what they get to do and how), then Moodle is great.  Otherwise....

Per http://drupal.org/node/134755, some modules under development  include:

Homework Module
Teachers could make assignments on the website, print out a student assignment, parents would see what assignments students owe, are pending, or past due, and teachers can classify as such

PTC Module:
A module to help organize parent teacher conferences that allowed parents to select a time and date from given choices, and teachers could then approve the selections.

Per http://groups.drupal.org/node/27208 - here are modules under development through the DrupalEd distribution:

  • http://drupal.org/project/gradebook
  • http://drupal.org/project/og_gradebook
  • http://drupal.org/project/quiz

Per http://groups.drupal.org/node/26004 here are some others:
