I am new to this technology as well and would love to test it with you and your students or class to see its effectiveness.<br />

Hi :) My suggestion is: when you compare and contrast do not compete :) Find similarities and differences, some of which were shown to you here, in this discussion. Then realize that people, students in your school, are different too and some of them might prefer the one you consider a weaker choice. I think each choice is individual and we have to have many choices.

If you would like to integrate your Moodle site with a social network, <a href="http://mahara.org">Mahara</a> can be set up to do so. I know individuals that are working on a simple Elgg/Moodle integration as well.

Please let us know what you find. I have used Moodle a lot and really like it. I would like to incorporate at Social Network, like NING into my teaching but, I know very little about the advantages of using NING. I would love to hear how others are using NING in their classrooms or how students would use it in a classroom setting. I am Spanish teacher so communicating in the target language would be a big benefit for my students.

I'm new to all of this interactive learning myself, so unfortunately I can't offer any advice. I have recently been introduced to Moodle, and so far it seems fairly easy to navigate/use. I've been reading the other comments about the other programs out there, so I'll have to check those out. I work with high school students as well, so I'd be interested in hearing how you use these networks with your students.

I use moodle for my classes and it really allows me to get me information out to my students and keep it organized. I can set dates and evaluate what work has been turned in electronically. I also use the ning for the social aspect within my school. The main question you need to ask yourself is what am I trying accomplish. Through my teaching a CMS is a valuable tool to make sure the class is organized in a way that is easy for the students and myself to use.

Great idea, very timely for me and my colleagues. It <i>looks</i> like moodle helps manage and document content, but I have to investigate its social and community credentials! Keep us posted, Skye.

Take a look at the wikipedia entry for LMS (Learning Management System). I view moodle more as an LMS. But I can't say I've used moodle myself.

Without a doubt, ning is the way to go. The difference between a Course Management System and an Online Learning Community is HUGE.<br />

I've never used Moodle, myself, but I agree with Steve and Tom about Ning offering a great platform for interaction. Reall, the main reason I'm even commenting is to give you major props for spending your time to look into this. Cheers!
