WebLearn Wiki
This wiki contains information about work in progress for WebLearn, Oxford's centrally hosted Virtual Learning Environment. It covers the service and technical development, specifically based on Bodington and Sakai. (There is also a separate section about the University's PDP system known as ASPIRE which, although hosted by the Careers Service, is being developed by the VLE team.)
