Hi Naoko,

I'll talk to the LI guys and see if they can fix you up with something... It seems that you might not need an entire server but just a couple of courses with a fix number of students. Is that a fair assumption? How many students would you need to have?

Thanks,

Ernie

Thank you for your reply. I appreciate your professional advice. Nobody replied to me because of Easter holiday ???
I need to run,,probably up to 3 courses each have 10-20 students. It is a language course.
Quadra hosting recommended this plan,

This is just for running Moodle.
I have never run my own course before so I want to start something very small to start with.

Hi Naoko,

It seems that LAMS international is about to release a new product called lessonLAMS which will allow people to have a LAMS course (fully controlled) and you would be able to create upto 30 students within your course for free. If you would need more than 30 a small monthly fee would apply. Here's the info:

According to LI, this would be out in two weeks!

Thanks,

Ernie
