LAMS stands for Learning Activity Management System and is used for designing, managing and delivering online collaborative learning activities. This is done through a visual authoring environment for creating sequences of learning activities. These activities can include a range of individual tasks, small group work and whole class activities based on both content and collaboration.
It is a standard module and also a course format in Moodle 1.6.
