Microsoft Learning Gateway description at ERGO (UK)
Microsoft Learning Gateway is a secure framework for combining e-Learning solutions in a secure online environment. It strengthens communication between parents, teachers and students.
It reduces administration to create more time for teaching, and it allows students to collaborate and express themselves in new ways.
As a portal framework, Microsoft Learning Gateway incorporates many of the familiar tools that are understood by users around the world. Integrated features like instant messaging and shared workspaces make it fun for students to work together on group tasks and obtain timely feedback on homework. However, its modular and standards-compliant approach means that schools can be flexible with features and reuse their existing technology investments to reduce the total cost of ownership.
