VSR10: Open Minded

In this episode we talk with Rob Ruberry and Jason Hando, two Australian teachers that have a good deal of experience with such Open Source tools as Joomla, Mambo and Moodle. We discuss the pros and cons of Open Source software generally.

Some links to the tools, people and ideas mentioned in this episode…
