Best low-bandwidth e-learning platform? multi-lingual, low-bandwidth,


 

Brilliant minds,

I'm searching, once again, for an e-learning+ platform that works well in low-bandwidth settings.
What platforms have you used, or even heard of, that are... (from most to least important):
  1. low-bandwidth friendly - can function on a low bandwidth, of 10Mbps download or lower
  2. allow for multiple admins, course creators, moderators? -?most often happens on a paid subscription plan, which is fine)
  3. accommodate both e-courses and a resources library; extra points if it also has a chat, "feed", or social component (think "community of practice")
  4. can be accessed accessed on both smartphone and desktop
  5. offer?WYSIWYG editing - no back-end coding, minimal to no markup language
  6. provide?simple analytics - to cover access and course progress/completion, at minimum
  7. give users super-simple ways to contribute - no more complicated to find, understand, or use than a Facebook feed or WhatsApp group
I'm not looking to build a custom platform, but am open to creative uses of existing platforms, and possibly stringing a few key tools together.

Thanks for your insights!

Cheers,
Sarah

Sarah we are also looking at low bandwidth tech and platforms, I will make sure that Katherine Treddinick sees this and can share any learning with you and of course the community here. We are particularly wondering about audio only and how that can be engaging....yes.....difficult! Anybody making advances on that?
