24. Learning Platforms- VLE A VLE is a software tool which brings together, in an integrated environment, a range of resources that enable learners and staff to interact online, and includes content delivery and tracking. • Kaleidos • Moodle • Sharepoint and ClassServer

25. Managed Learning Environment-MLE • An MLE brings together two distinct strands – a VLE and a management information system (MIS) and has the potential to fully integrate learning materials, pupil data and assessment (MLE = VLE + MIS). • We will shortly be bringing together Sims.net (MIS) and Sharepoint (VLE) to produce SimsLearning Gateway (MLE)
