Learning Management System and Blogging in Thompson

A learning or content management system like Moodle or Blackboard can be a beneficial instructional tool extending classrooms and the district into an online classroom. A blog environment connecting all Thompson's blogs can increase collaboration and communication opportunities.

LHS and TVHS have pilot Moodle systems running. Many teachers utilize websites, wikis, blogs, and other web 2.0 tools to extend their classroom environments. How can we offer this approach to all students? What are your thoughts about how Thompson should move forward as a district in these arenas?
