Moodle

Moodle is a course management system (CMS) - a free, open source software package designed using sound pedagogical principles, to help educators create effective online learning communities. You can download and use it on any computer you have handy (including webhosts), yet it can scale from a single-teacher site to a University with 200,000 students.

Moodle's popularity has been growing in K-12 schools because it is much less expensive than similar commercial products such as Blackboard, and Web CT. Moodle is very flexible, providing the server administrator the ability to add or remove various modules to customize Moodle for their school's specific needs.
