- Customization: Moodle has a modular architecture allowing you to customize features by creating modules and plugins. There is large community plugin directory which you can utilize to extend your LMS
- integration with ERPs, Payment gateways, HRMs, CMS, Virtual Classes and many other tools
- It has been around for a while which means it is pretty well full featured and has a great active community.
- unlike Moodle, it doesn’t natively support SCORM packages
- Moodle offers a good balance feature set for both students and teachers whereas Open edX is more student centred

If your goal is to create a learning site that can handle massive unlimited concurrent participants, Open edX is probably what you are looking for.
If you goal is to manage a learning site for your organization or educational institution, Moodle is probably what you are looking for.

Collaboration Kills Creativity, According to Science | Inc.com
- Despite this kind of corporate-speak truthiness, there is substantial scientific evidence that collaboration, rather than sparking creativity, results in group-think and mediocrity. What does result in creativity? Simple: solitude.
- "two ways in which solitude can facilitate creativity--first, by stimulating imaginative involvement in multiple realities and, second, by 'trying on' alternative identities, leading, perhaps, to self-transformation... by separating us from our usual social and physical environments, solitude can remove those people and objects that define and confirm our identities. The people we see and the places we frequent reinforce our identities as students, parents, police officers, or whomever.... By extracting us from our customary social and physical contexts (or at least altering our experience of them), solitude facilitates self-examination, reconceptualization of the self, and coming to terms with change."

- Deeper learning, a term used to define the skills and knowledge that students need for successful entry into 21st century careers and civic life, is comprised of six competencies: mastery of core academic content, critical thinking and complex problem solving, effective communication, collaboration, learning to learn, and an academic mindset (William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, 2013).
- Open Educational Practice (OEP) as comprising a set of skills in collaboration, curation, curricular design, and leadership around the use of OER.
- OEP builds educator capacity for using OER to improve curriculum, instruction, and pedagogy, and to gain skills in digital resource curation and curriculum creation, and to actively collaborate around and advocate for innovative approaches to open education and OER.
- Buck Institute for Education’s Project Based Teaching Rubric identifies concrete deeper learning pedagogies.
- Deeper Learning Aligned Practices
Examples drawn from the Buck Institute for Education Project-Based Learning (PBL) Rubric - Without the integration of OER and OEP into their teaching practice, teachers miss the key benefits of OEP: 1) the ability to find and leverage the work of others to fit the classroom and elevate student engagement; 2) access to legal and technological structures to use, adapt, author content that is most relevant to deeper learning priorities; and 3) the advancement of teacher professionalism in a manner that benefits others and the field of education generally.
