Moodle is a Course Management System (CMS), also known as a Learning Management System (LMS) or a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE).  Moodle is a web application, distributed as open source software (GPL), that educators can use to create effective online learning sites.  Moodle.org is a community site where Moodle is made and discussed by community members

Moodle has a core team of developers, headed by Martin Dougiamas in Perth Australia, and is successful in large part because of a network of commercial support companies called Moodle partners. Remote-Learner is the leading Moodle partner in North America and was instrumental in the founding of the network in 2004.
