"Wordcircle is a course management tool focused on the needs of teachers and students looking to collaborate online. The product was designed with certain basic features in mind. In its initial release, the product includes a calendar, discussion board and course materials (files) module as well as a project module for students to store journal entries and documents related to teacher and self-assigned activities.

While there are many course management tools like this, not many are easy to use from an educative or administrative standpoint. The user interface is intuitive and clear as is the maintenance of courses and the system itself.

Currently, wordcircle is being used by a handful of academic institutions mostly in the United States. The first group to help define and test the system is now using it successfully at Mills College in Oakland, California. The product is very new and basic, but so far the feedback has been enthusiastic."

O site de teste está hospedado em um servidor precário... Se ficar muito tempo fora do ar, por favor escreva para weblivre@br101.org. Vc pode/deve tentar usar os cms instalados no opensourcecms.com. Lá tem muito mais opções do que aqui. :)
