ABSTRACT
With the vast development of various technologies, learning today is no longer confined to classrooms with lecture delivery as the only method of conveying knowledge rather an electronic means of learning has continued to evolved. Electronic learning (e-learning), which facilitates education using communications or network, has made learning possible from anywhere at anytime using the internet, wide area networks or local area networks. Notably, e-learning applications which have now become central to the learning process may be developed using proprietary programming tools and process of acquiring and using them to develop large software application is not only complex but require a huge sum of money. A viable alternative is to utilize the open source software platform that allows software engineers and institutions the right to reuse, study distribute and localize to satisfy user’s requirements. This paper provides an overview of e – learning and the open source domain as well as discusses how open source can be used to speedily realizes the development of an e-learning application in a web environment using an adaptive process. Specifically, the authors described their prelimining experiment of implementing an open source e-learning platform by adapting free PHP source code and MySQL database to suit an electronic class bulletin board.
