Easy to Use, 100% Open Source Learning Management System.
Frappe Learning is a learning management system designed to help users create and manage online courses. Here are some of its main features:
Structured Learning: Frappe Learning allows users to design courses with a 3-level hierarchy: courses, chapters, and lessons, which helps to keep track of multiple topics and ensures the context of the lesson is set by the chapter.
Diverse Content Types: The platform supports a variety of content types including videos from YouTube or Vimeo, direct uploads from a computer, text content, and quizzes.
Live Classes: Frappe Learning enables the creation of batches to group learners, and instructors can conduct live classes using Zoom, with the ability to create Zoom classes directly from the app.
Assessments: Instructors can create quizzes with multiple-choice or text answer options, set marks, passing percentages, and configure questions to be shuffled. They can also include assignments that allow submissions as PDF, document, image, or URL.
Evaluations and Certifications: The app offers a scheduling system for face-to-face evaluations where learners can select a time slot based on evaluator availability. Once evaluated, students can be granted certificates using a built-in template or a custom-designed one.
Social Learning: The platform provides a discussion section below each lesson for learners to ask questions, and fellow learners and instructors can respond. Learners can also leave reviews and ratings for courses.
User Profiles: Each learner has a profile page where they can add a picture, bio, and headline, and list all earned certificates. This profile can be shared with others.
Open Source: Frappe Learning is 100% open source, which provides a cost-effective solution, particularly for non-profit organizations.
Customizable: The platform allows for customization of courses.
Ease of Use: It is designed to be easy to use for educators, organizations, and freelancers for creating and sharing courses.
Origins: Frappe Learning was initially developed as a custom platform for FOSS United, and later adapted for Frappe's own learning platform.
In summary, Frappe Learning aims to be an easy-to-use and versatile learning system that supports structured courses, various content types, live interactions, assessments, certifications, and social learning. It is intended to be a default choice for anyone looking for a learning system, including educational institutes, corporations, and individuals.
