Information Technology Services Receives National Grant for Moodle Development
Information Technology Services (ITS) has been awarded $43,500 from the National Institute for Technology and Liberal Education (NITLE) to support a project to build a model for sustainable Moodle development. Lafayette is acting as the lead institution, but the project constitutes a national collaboration with Reed, Macalester, Kenyon, Earlham, and Smith colleges. The College’s portion of the project will be headed by Ken Newquist, web applications specialist. According to Neil McElroy, dean of libraries and ITS, although Moodle is used by Lafayette and hundreds of colleges and universities across the globe, there is currently no structure for coordinated, sustained development of the system.
