The Salsa project http://salsa.usu.edu/ at Utah State University has
developed an open source syllabus application for higher education. We
are
integrated with the Canvas LMS http://instructure.com/, and will add
integrations with other learning management systems as we grow. In
particular, we have Moodle http://moodle.org/ institutions that want a
direct integration.
We have a licensing agreement in place with USU to commercially develop
this product. After 18 months at the Center for Innovative Design &
Instruction http://cidi.usu.edu/ funded byUSTAR
http://ustar.usu.edu/,
we are bootstrapping through custom development projects and will be
offering paid service agreements starting in February 1.
If you have ROR skills, a passion for education and open source, and
you’re
interested, please send your contact information and evidence of your
skills to salsa [at] usu [dot] edu.
Thanks,
George Joeckel
