LAMS

LAMS (Learning Activity Management System) is software that enables people to design learning sequences; you may remember I mentioned trying it out last semester. Online proceedings of the LAMS conference held in December 2006 have been published. Information Literacy isn't mentioned specifically, but there a couple of papers dealing with student skills.

I was using LAMS as part of the JISC funded DESILA project. I notice that the similarly-JISC-funded ALED project (http://aled.swancoll.ac.uk/mediawiki/index.php?title=Welcome_Introduction) was going to create some library-related LAMS sequences (using the catalogue etc.)
