The idea for phpEdu was born a couple of years ago when I was developing a CMS for phpBB and thought of online teaching (As of December 2008, the World of English website is still running this CMS). Then I had to build a website for an English as Foreign Language school in Poland. Then I came across Claroline and graduallly the CMS idea grew into phpEdu. A Sourceforge account was created and beta versions were released before picking up interest in Drupal.
Seeing the direction in which Drupal was heading with its clean, powerful and modular nature as well as the vibrant community behind it, I felt the project will fare much better on this foundation. So, porting the application to Drupal modules began around mid-2006. Still in beta, at this moment of writing, the future is looking brighter and brighter indeed.
