Just a quick update to add the default roles and question types that should have shipped with version 1.8 (they have been added to the end of the /install/ilearn_install.sql script) and a quick feature addition. You can now create 'news' announcements from within the admin. Some other minor modifications were added too - minor CSS things, etc. Thanks to Thomas Messier for pointing out that I didn't ship the roles and question types. Download iLearn at RIAForge.

I've just released iLearn which is a simple Learning Management System built in ColdFusion. With iLearn you simply input your users into the system (admin users, instructors and students). Once instructors and students have been built into the system you can build courses. After a course is built you associcate exams, questions and answers. When an exam is issued, students can take the exams.
The exam interface provides students immediate feedback on correct/incorrect answers as well as a floating progress indicator that shows overall exam progress and current score.
I built this application about a year ago and the client has been kind enough to let me Open Source it. The current version is 1.8 - so it is pretty stable at this point. They have used the application to handle a very large courseload with many exams over the past year. There are still a number of enhancements that I have in mind, but I felt comfortable releasing it at this point. I think the LMS space is seriously lacking in the ColdFusion community and hopefully some folks will decide to get behind the project and help build it up into a solid product.
Be sure to check out the screenshots at RIAForge or just download the application and try it out.
