Slovene.si is a free to use online course of Slovene language at the A1 level. It is intended for everyone who would like to learn Slovene on their own in a simple, playful and efficient way.
The course runs in Moodle 2.2, which is an open source Learning Management System which has become very popular among educators around the world as a tool for creating effective online learning sites (it has more than 57 million users worldwide).
The contents of the course are based on the Distance Slovene project (2004–2006); however, they have been thoroughly reviewed and updated. The idea is to have an online course which can be changed at all times so the contents are always up to date.
