Moodle have started to collate a history of online learning from around 1960 through to present day that is available to registered users at:

•  http://docs.moodle.org/en/Online_Learning_History

A more comprehensive and complete history of VLEs is available at Wikipedia at:

• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_virtual_learning_environments

Of particular interest in the Wikipedia entry is the timelines relating to the Blackboard patent assertion leading to “The Blackboard Patent Pledge” in February 2007.
