moodle

There are several discussions about integration of Drupal, Moodle, Elgg, aTutor and so on.

The questions:
- Is there a common user database?
- Which software is integrated in which (Drupal in Moddle or Moodle in Drupal)?
- Is this a real integration or only a synchronisation of user accounts?
- Which version works which version?

The current solutions are very version specific and specialized. A huge disadvantage is, that they are not using a common user database: They are only synchronising the user accounts.

As it doesn't make sense to integrate Drupal into Moodle, the question (not only Moodle specific) is: "How do I integrate other web-applications into Drupal?". In fact: "How do I use the Drupal user database from outside?".

Moodle 1.6 + Elgg 0.6 = what do you think about that ;)?

There is some interesting resource about issue similar to lampuniversity

Some fresh news from Michael Penney about Drupal and Moodle integration for the Humboldt State University.
It is really interesting...

Right now there is just a powerpoint, the interesting stuff about integration and features added starts about slide 20. We'll have demo accounts set up pretty soon, and will also publish the documentation from the process in the next few weeks.

Anybody has some success story about integration of Moodle and Drupal?

There is module for drupal and moodle for one sign-in, but maybe somebody went further?

Please comment it.

Anybody has the similiar idea?

Integration of Civicspaces + Moodle + Elgg + new Drupal modules.(without LDAP)

1. Moodle, Drupal, Civicrm, Civicspace and Elgg working together with priority for Drupal as main framework.
2. Moodle, Civicrm, Elgg and Civiclabs working as modules at the Drupal with rich possibilities for customizing settings.

2.1. Moodle integration (for example):

• settings of Moodle in drupal/administer/modules.
• Layout template (CSS) for Moodle and Drupal with keeping specific interface for Drupal and Moodle
• Rebuilding user.module from drupal for some specific information from Moodle, for example: enrolled courses, pm, teacher or student, last login, information from Moodle/gradebook module etc.
