Background [edit]
Dokeos is based in France, where it has been widely used, and has had substantial international reach.[1] The Dokeos open source program is a fork of Claroline, which it eclipsed in popularity.[1]
In 2008, an "unpaid independent review" concluded that the Dokeos user community was active and supportive and had helped develop the program.[1] The user community had contributed many extensions including RSS Readers, polling, reservation, peer review, and grade book capabilities.[1][citation needed]
Standards [edit]
Dokeos is programmed in PHP, Javascript and HTML.[1] It is SCORM compliant.[1]
Features [edit]
An independent report by Kineo in 2008 commended Dokeos for simplicity, usability, SCORM compliance, strong reporting capability, and features such as virtual classroom and rapid learning and authoring.
