There are number of open source learning content management systems (LMS). Moodle, ATutor, and SAKAI are the most popular, I believe. You may be interested in this user's experience evaluating several, http://bonajo.com/blog/2009/03/31/which-open-source-lms-is-best-moodle-or-at... If you want something very versatile, consider the Quiz module for Drupal. Drupal is designed to be a general community content management system, not an LMS, but the Quiz module provides the assessment features you describe in the context of a strong volunteer and professional developer community. http://drupal.org/project/quiz/ The current development release supports even more of Moodle's functionality, http://openeducationresearch.org/2009/07/plone-drupal-moodle-and-atutor/ If you'd rather use a hosted service than set up your own software, e-mail me offline. I am working on towards such a service using the Quiz module. It is called Qcommons and will be primarily for sharing assessment items among educators (assessments as social media) but I am evaluating adding in student uses.
