I was looking into what other people were doing with their Moodle sites when I stumbled across this one. I know my kids would love it and since so many moms that visit my blog also have very computer oriented kids, I wanted to pass this one along. It is a Moodle-based virtual school that focuses on computer animation, painting, and game creation called The Youth Digital Arts Cyberschool. It looks to be very well done and the course prices are very reasonable espeacially when yo consider how deep a discount on the software you can get. You will likely need a broadband connection (DSL, cable, or fiber optic) though.
Take this link to see an example lesson -

Here is the homepage -

They also have a downloadable movie made by one of the students explaining her educational video game that is progress - big download of 70mb but worth it. You can link to it under the student gallery link in the sidebar on the homepage.
