Looking at Integration of Technologies

Well, my group has almost finished a comprehensive spreadsheet comparing different course management systems and content filters. We are ready to see how all of these technologies will work together, and which ones we should recommend to our school system. We have looked at Blackboard, Moodle, School Fusion, Gaggle, and Teacher Web. Each of these programs have their own set of strengths and weaknesses, and our county does not need to pay for all of these services, but we will be trying to determine which technologies will work together the best and give the county the best bang for their buck. School Fusion has definitely risen to the top as a resource for building websites, and Blackboard 9.1 is getting new looks because of its use at NCVPS. We want to be able to make an informed, intelligent decision that will benefit our county for years to come. We think we will be able to do that as we continue our discussions over the course of the next two weeks.
