Multi-platform
Claroline is compatible with GNU / Linux , Mac OS and Microsoft Windows . It is based on free technology like PHP and MySQL .
development
Claroline is based on a strictly pedagogical principle from literature and is enriched by training technologies. Since 2000, Claroline development teams have focused on code stability and the development of functions according to user needs. The main concern of the developers is not to develop a large number of new functions, but to refine some tools that are important for the pedagogical approach and the interface with the user. In addition, a large global community of users and developers contributes to the further development and distribution of Claroline.
partner
Initially launched in 2000 by the French-speaking Catholic University of Leuven (UCL) , Claroline has evolved according to the educational experience and needs of teachers. Claroline has meanwhile received financial support from the Walloon region through the WIST program.
In this program, Claroline was associated with three Belgian partners:
- CERDECAM , Center de Recherche et de Développement, Brussels
- LENTIC, Laboratoire d'études sur les nouvelles technologies, l'innovation et le changement de l ' ULg , Liège
- IPM , Institut de pédagogie universitaire et des multimédias de l ' UCL , Louvain-la-Neuve
The open, international Claroline consortium has existed since May 23, 2007, with the goal of spreading and developing the learning platform. In addition to the 5 founding members of the consortium,
- the already mentioned UCL in Belgium ,
- the Haute Ecole Léonard de Vinci in Belgium,
- the Universidade de Vigo in Spain ,
- the Université du Québec à Rimouski in Canada ,
- and the Universidad Católica del Norte in Chile ,
there are currently 15 other partners from different countries.
