The course management system has become an integral part of institutional technology and academic operations, such that institutions invest a significant amount of time and effort in identifying, selecting, and implementing a CMS that best serves their needs. In this session, presenters from three different institutions will discuss why one chose Moodle, a second picked Blackboard, and a third selected Sakai. Each will discuss lessons learned in implementing and operating the chosen CMS, providing a basis for comparing and contrasting the three.
